DerbySoft’s Hotels Now Available through Amadeus

Amadeus has partnered DerbySoft, a Shanghai-headquartered technology company creating next generation online hotel distribution infrastructures, to offer travel agents and travellers access to more independent and mid-range Chinese hotels through Amadeus. The same is now available to Amadeus Travel agency subscribers as Distinguished Hotels under chain-code DB.

Ted Zhang, CEO of DerbySoft, said, “Our partnership with Amadeus has made it simple for international travellers to book DerbySoft hotels through their travel agents. With the full range of DerbySoft Hotel content now ‘live’ and easily accessible on the Amadeus distribution system, it is easier than ever for travellers to find a hotel to suit their individual needs and budget.”

More than 103,000 travel agencies in the Amadeus network will now be able to make bookings with DerbySoft three-star independent hotels located across China. This connectivity to Amadeus enables Derbysoft’s hotels to rapidly add content and rates, implement new features and enhancements, as well as develop offers more quickly. This not only allows hotels but also travel agents to meet the fast-changing demands of today’s travellers.

Kartikeya Tripathi, Regional Director of Hotel Distribution, Amadeus Asia Pacific, said, “China received over 21.9 million foreign visitors in 2009, and is expected to record further growth in tourism of up to four-percent in 2010. Amadeus sees great potential in the future of China’s travel and tourism industry. We are committed to delivering more travel options for Chinese and international travellers, while at the same time helping China’s travel and hospitality industry reach out to global markets.”
