Hotel booking added to OAG website
Travelocity Partner Network division World Choice Travel is to power a booking system for a hotel reservations service on OAG’s travel website.
Bookings will be available on the travel and transport information company’s www.oag.com site.
The hotel booking engine offers more than 200 hotel brands in almost 10,000 destinations at discounted rates. The site features colour hotel brochures and interactive mapping, and is available in six languages and in more than 160 currencies.
Duncan Alexander, managing director business development at OAG, said: “The new service is targeted at business and leisure consumers who need a quick and easy solution to finding and booking a hotel. It makes our travel portal an even more useful and relevant resource for corporate customers and the travelling public.
“OAG.com is already providing a wealth of worldwide flight and travel information, including electronic guides to more than 200 countries and 400 airports, all designed to assist travellers and travel arrangers in making the best possible travel decisions.
“The addition of this simple ‘look and book’ service is complimentary to the subscription products we offer the corporate market for preparing complex and frequent trip plans with preferencing and full itinerary building capabilities.”
