Amadeus has launched a new web portal that allows hoteliers to promote their deals and offers directly to travel agents in Asia Pacific.

Amadeus Hotels Select is directly connected to the Amadeus Global Distribution System (GDS). This means that travel agents not only have instant visibility on promotional offers and deals, but with a single click of a button, can book the hotels.

Travel agents will be able to improve customer service by offering better deals faster, customised to the travellers needs.

Kartikeya Tripathi, Head of Hotel Distribution, Amadeus Asia Pacific, said, This win-win situation offers enhanced selling opportunities for both parties, bringing our hotel partners closer to our travel agency customers. Participating hoteliers can now highlight their best and latest offers instantly to a wide network of travel agents. This allows them the much needed agility and flexibility to communicate special offers.
