Galileo International announced it has signed a 10-year contract with United Airlines to provide reservation system technology and hosting services. The GDS company is also developing a new internet booking engine for the airline’s Web site, United.com. United recently joined Galileo’s Preferred Fares Select program, which provides Galileo-connected travel agencies and their customers with complete access to all of United’s published fares for a three-year term. This competitive content includes all fares the airline sells through any other GDS, third-party Web sites, or their own Web site and reservation offices. United and Cendant are also expanding their relationship by implementing promotional opportunities within Cendant’s Retail Travel Services group, said Flo Lugli, senior vice president, Airline Solutions for Cendant’s Travel Distribution Services division.
