Friday, 15 August 20253 min read

Fred. Olsen Travel has inked a new multi-year agreement with Travelport.

Under the deal, Fred. Olsen Travel will exclusively adopt Travelport+ as its global distribution system (GDS).

Fred. Olsen Travel operates 23 high street travel agencies, a tour operator and GSA divisions, as well as a business travel division.

Fred. Olsen Travel initially engaged with Travelport as part of a dual-GDS strategy to support its leisure operations.

“Travelport’s API capabilities and Smartpoint desktop solution are key to unlocking greater efficiencies and enhancing the booking experience for our teams,” said Lorraine Brown, head of business travel and flight service for Fred. Olsen Travel.

“We’re confident this partnership will support our continued growth across both leisure and corporate travel sectors.”

Fred. Holidays will access Travelport+ content via Travelport’s APIs, while Fred. Olsen Business Travel consultants will use Travelport Smartpoint.
