I know that several people (academia and industry) are working on
projects that use the VSO for cars, but I am not aware of any releases
yet.

Hi Juan:
Can somebody recommend me an ontology/vocabulary to describe travel,
accommodations, etc? The only thing I can find is the travel
ontology that is used for tutorial purposes in Protege.
For rental cars, boats, bikes, etc., the best choice is likely the
VSO:
http://purl.org/vso/ns
See examples there.
For any kind of tickets for transportation and events, there will be
the TIO ontology soon (not yet released) and for accommodation,
there will be a hotels etc. ontology, both specializing
GoodRelations. Both should be available shortly.
The domain ontology for hotels etc. will only be needed to model the
hotel room features etc. in more detail.
Note that you can directly model any kind of rental offers with
GoodRelations, using
foo:offer a gr:Offering ;
gr:hasBusinessFunction gr:LeaseOut.
...
Interesting properties for your purpose are
gr:advanceBookingRequirement (relative pre-booking period)
gr:validFrom (Booking period)
gr:validThrough
gr:availabilityEnds (Period of the stay)
gr:availabilityStarts
gr:availableAtOrFrom (link to the locations)
gr:eligibleDuration (time interval - number of days, min/max)
Here is a quick sketch of modeling a hotel in GoodRelations:
@prefix gr: <http://purl.org/goodrelations/v1#>.
@prefix default: <http://www.heppnetz.de/ontologies/examples/gr#>.
@prefix xsd: <http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#>.
