XML Options for Transportation Management

Overview Responding to record numbers of delayed and cancelled flights, the top U.S. airlines have decided to try to fix the clunky links between their individual electronic-ticketing systems in an effort to make it easier for stranded passengers who don't have paper tickets to rebook flights with a different carrier. They are going to use XML documents to allow sharing electronic ticket information.--- Transportation Magazine

Transportation professionals who want to be proactive should try to develop some understanding of this technology and why it could be so useful.
