UK short break operator Superbreak is to distribute via the FindandBook platform from travel software specialist Multicom.
Superbreak’s overseas stock will also be available via FAB, which can be linked to Multicom’s Eurostar booking facility. Airport hotels and other add-ons are also available with Superbreak acting as principal on all bookings.
Superbreak sales director Ian Mounser said: “We are delighted to be working with Multicom to make our accommodation products available through FindandBook and extend our distribution through this platform to other markets.
“The growth in demand for UK holidays from the domestic market has been significant this year, for example agent bookings for London hotels in June and July alone are up over 40% year on year.
“With 80% of our business being UK hotels we are ideally placed to provide the widest choice for travel agents to access these products at a time when more and more customers want them. I would really encourage any travel business that’s not currently offering UK hotel breaks to seriously consider it.”
Multicom head of sales David Osborne added: “Superbreak is a well established business with an excellent reputation and we are pleased to be working with yet another market leader to provide travel businesses with the best choice available for their customers.
“At a time when UK breaks are in huge demand from the domestic market this is an ideal opportunity for us to work together.”
