Travelport to distribute TUI car rental content
TUI has signed a deal with the GDS Travelport to distribute its car content to agents using Galileo and indicated further tie-ups between the two are in the pipeline.
The content will be available later in the summer through a direct connect to TUI’s car hire platform and will give access to car rental in around 24,000 locations and over 50,000 broker locations.
The deal will mean agents using Galileo get access to local car hire not previously bookable on their system such as Auto Jardim in Portgual, Avia in the Canary Islands and Nizza Cars in Andalucia.
