Tuesday, 20 April 20043 min read

Galileo International Inc. introduced Galileo Optimal Shopping, which it described as a “robust, new, fare-shopping tool.”

Optimal Shopping is available to Galileo-connected agents in the US and Canada. The tool enables agents to quickly find a substantially greater depth and breath of itineraries and low-fare pricing options for customers traveling on wholly North American itineraries.

The new search tool identifies as many as 150 alternatives, including fare from low-cost carriers and airlines’ web fares, according to Galileo

“This is a search technology that travel agencies literally cannot find anywhere else in the world,” said Marcie Verdin, vice president of marketing, Galileo Americas.
