Amadeus, Transhotel Partner to Launch Travel Agents Booking Solution

Amadeus, a global provider of technology and distribution solutions for the travel and tourism industry, signes a strategic partnership agreement with Transhotel, a global consolidator of hotels and services. Under the agreement, both companies will work more closely to improve travel agents' access to Transhotel content within this new product offered to Amadeus customers.

Amadeus is developing a solution to integrate hotel consolidator content in a new product within the Amadeus Selling Platform, the company's travel agency point-of-sale. The solution will provide seamless access to this content, making the booking process easier, faster and more efficient. Transhotel's inventory of 50,000 hotels will be available through the solution when it is launched later this year. Beyond access to wider hotel content, this solution also ensures upfront payment of commissions for Transhotel bookings. The solution will be piloted in selected markets during the month of March and will be available to travel agencies soon after that.

Unlike North America, about two thirds of the hotels in Europe are independent properties and Amadeus has made significant progress in integrating this crucial content. 30% of the 80,000 properties available in Amadeus Hotels are independent and budget hotels. By adding a sizeable volume of additional hotels, the new solution complements Amadeus Hotels with significant extra choice for travel agencies to offer their customers.
