Travelport and Nor1, the technology compa
ny in upsell solutions announced a strategic partnership to broaden distribution and increase revenue opportunities for hotels.
Under the agreement, hotels leveraging Nor1’s upsell solutions, such as its signature eStandby Upgrade®, will be able to reach more guests through Travelport which operates both the Worldspan and Gallileo global distribution systems (GDS).
eStandby Upgrade offers, currently used by thousands of worldwide hotels, will now be available via itinerary emails and Travelport ViewTrip™, which is available free of charge to Travelport connected agencies. Participating properties confirm the pay-for-upgrade requests guests make at check-in and are able to instantly boost their bottom line revenue on top of their existing reservations.
“By Partnering with Travelport, we are enabling more guests to take advantage of eStandby Upgrade to enhance their stay with properties around the globe. Our solution also benefits the properties as they earn more revenue from every reservation,” said Jason Bryant, president and COO of Nor1, Inc.
Adding further Niklas Andreen, GVP hospitality and partner marketing for Travelport said: “This partnership is very much aligned with our global drive to boost revenues for hotel customers and provide additional value to our travel agents clients.”
