The company is the foremost supplier of hotel accommodation. It is the fastest growing travel trade supplier. We enjoy exclusive relationships with global tour operators, chains and independent hotels across the globe.

We provide reservations to an unrivalled 70 000 properties worldwide, with a view to increasing inventory to 100,000 by 2012. Over 100% growth during tight economic times is testimony to a service oriented business model; based on listening and responding to the needs of our customers.

In 2010, we launched a brand new website and booking system, created in-house by a dedicated team of developers. Innovative technology uses real time comparison and filtration to deliver the lowest price room matching a query in seconds. Over 2000 travel companies across Australia already connect to this platform, benefiting from connections to leading accommodation wholesalers, hotel chains and independent hotels across the globe.
Our sister company drives an exclusive front and back-office system. Its technology is today one of the fastest and most unique travel distribution technology in the world. This proprietary technology and state-of-the-art booking engine distinguishes itself from any other in the market with more unique features:

• The fastest travel distribution system in the world plus the most streamlined website in the market equals the fastest search results and availability.
• A user-friendly interface where every detail is tailored to the needs and wants of travel agents.
• Interactive hotel maps and photo tours; properties are viewed via satellite maps or browsed from an array of photos to assist booking.

We are on a mission to have a complete suite of products by late 2011; one that includes cruises and complete holiday packages. We will connect to all the major wholesalers and hotel chains in the world, fortifying presence in every region – host to host.

Our company aims to be Australia’s 1st choice for booking travel, and the preferred partner of all our major travel groups.
