HRG takes on Galileo globally
Hogg Robinson has renewed its contract with Travelport for its Galileo GDS and has extended the deal to the US for the first time.
“We already have a strong and successful track record of working closely with HRG across Europe, Middle East and Africa, and Asia Pacific regions,” said Sandra McLeod, vice president global accounts and strategic corporate development, Travelport GDS.
She said Travelport had helped HRG grow its business in Singapore, Hong Kong and Australia.
The two businesses are now developing a number of new market initiatives, including the launch of HRG’s Universal Super Platform.
