These include Comfort Inn, Comfort Suites, Quality, Sleep Inn, Clarion, MainStay Suites, Econo Lodge and Rodeway Inn.
The bookings are made through Travel’s Funjet Vacations and United Vacations.

Said Mary Beth Knight, vice president, e-commerce for Choice Hotels:
“Mark Travel, with its exclusive focus on vacation packaging, represents a tremendous distribution vehicle for our hotels.”
The move gives more flexibility to create customized travel plans, added Ray Snisky, president of Funjet Vacations.
