Pelican comes to US
Pelican System has opened an office in the US.
The new office in Las Vegas will build on the company’s Asian success to introduce its online reservation and distribution system to the American travel market, the company says.
“We believe the unique features of Pelican system will attract significant attention from US hoteliers,” said H. Liman, director of Pelican System.
The company is an internet-based reservation system designed to manage all types of bookings, whether made directly by guests or through travel agents and corporate clients.
For travel agents and corporate clients, Pelican offers a feature called ”Online contracting,” which eliminates the need for paper-based, fixed-term contracts. The company says this allows hotels to set and adjust rates and allotments instantly based on seasonal periods, or special events, or unexpected demand.
Mr Liman says the Pelican system provides a secure link to agents and clients, allowing hotels to distribute confidential trade rates to pre-authorized recipients, and to share allotments among many agents and others on a first-come, first-served basis.
