Travelport has amalgamated its operations in th
e UAE and established a new regional hub office in Dubai that will function as the company’s corporate headquarters for the Middle East and Africa.
The new location underscores the company’s continued expansion drive since it established direct Galileo global distribution system (GDS) operations in the Middle East in 2009. The move also brings the company’s training facilities – previously housed in Al Barsha – and its full-service helpdesk – formerly located at Silicon Oasis – all under one roof. As well as providing continued support to Galileo travel agents, the GDS provider is also now fully equipped to serve local Worldspan-connected travel agents.
Additionally, Travelport’s corporate hub office in Dubai acts as an extension of its operations in Africa, where the GDS provider recently set-up a direct distribution network for travel agents in South Africa.
