FCM launches travel content gateway

Monday, 22 Jul, 2019 0

FCM Travel Solutions has created a virtual gateway to its negotiated fares, rates and booking options.

Called Marketplace, the travel content gateway is part of FCM’s approach to giving customers access to its business travel content via multi-channel online and offline sources from across its global network.

As a result of the team’s negotiation power, FCM clients have access to specialist fares from 420 airline partners, 112 global rail providers, and car hire deals in 97 countries.

The expertise of FCM’s procurement team, combined with that of dedicated travel consultants managing individual booking requirements, results in an average saving of 12 per cent on air tickets within FCM clients’ global travel programmes.

In terms of hotels, Marketplace offers 20 million room rates including 5 million negotiated rates at 650,000 properties globally and 2.3 million exclusive promotional room night rates at 60 hotel brands worldwide.

FCM EMEA product director Mick Heitzinger said: "Travel content is vast and covers a huge array of choice which can be confusing for the corporate customer.

"Travel buyers are frequently concerned about whether they are getting the best value, the widest choice of air content, hotel rates, and so on, in order to achieve cost-savings and ROI on their travel programme.

"Not only does Marketplace give our customers access to FCM’s exclusive and vast range of global content all in one place, it also embraces disrupters and new entrants to the distribution landscape to ensure our customers have full availability and visibility."
