EVOLVING ONLINE DISTRIBUTION & LEISURE BUSINESS

Online travel bookings worldwide expected to reach record levels this year.

Distribution of your property’s information, inventory and rates to Online Travel Agents, Tour Operators and Travel Search Sites is more crucial than ever.

At Navarino Services our aim is to not only ensure your successful online distribution but to secure you the most current opportunities available in this fast evolving media. Below are just some of the ways we can help you to target and increase leisure travel via Online and IDS Distribution.

• Navarino Services can assist your hotel with getting the most from your IDS Distribution via the PEGS Switch. The IDS Booking Channel connects you to 1000’s of Global Online Travel Sites, but getting the most from this system is always a challenge. Navarino Services ensures they have relationships in place with all relevant IDS Partners, providing their hotels with the contacts, information and support required to target the most relevant partners to increase their IDS Revenue such as...
             -  Google
             - TripAdvisor

• Navarino uses the latest Booking Engine Technology offering the best competitive advantages to drive business direct from your website.

• Navarino are delighted to be able to offer our hotels the opportunity to increase mareketing AND distribution with Pay per Click programmes including Google Hotel Price Ads & TripAdvisor Price Check.  This offer is currently exclusively available only to hotels using the major Global CRS’s - such as the Navarino System. It allows you to sell directly to the consumer as they search for hotels and availability within their chosen location on Google Maps.

• Navarino properties can now benefit from complete Channel Management via our
  Channel Connect Tool.

• Navarino Services provides access to all Major Global Consortia via their RFP Management Tool. The majority of Travel Agents and HBA’s will have an affiliation to a Global Consortia (Co-operative of Travel Agents). This includes smaller agents who would not have the buying power to negotiate rates on their own, but who provide a far wider range of clients, including a large % of Leisure Bookers. The agents and their clients have no fixed accommodation programmes in place and therefore have freedom to book exactly what the individual traveller wants (rather than what the procurement people decide they should!). This allows the Independent Hotel far greater opportunity to receive business from independent travellers booking leisure via the GDS. Consortia offering Leisure Business include - CCRA, Hickory/Custom Travel, TravelGraphics, WIN, ITP and more.

• Navarino partners with GDS Connected OTA’s, to assist with driving Leisure Business to our hotels globally. We provide the opportunity to take part in Opaque & NET Pricing programmes, allowing you to be visible on such global travel sites as Priceline.com.
