What do you mean here? I take OTA to mean "over the air," but I'm struggling to see the connection to this breach. Were reservations being transmitted by radio/satellite?

OTA == Online Travel Agent

A third party booking site like travel.com or Priceline.com used to book hotels and airlines instead of booking directly. I never use third party sites.
