Travelport has secured a new long-term content agreement with Hilton Worldwide, giving travel agents access to the hotel group’s global portfolio of more than 4,000 properties.
The multi-year, global full-content agreement will see all of Hilton’s hotels made available on Travelport’s Galileo and Worldspan global distribution systems (GDS).
“Extending our partnership with Travelport is an important part of our overall distribution strategy and we very much value their extensive worldwide network of travel agency customers as well as the focus and investment they have clearly made in enabling highly efficient hotel distribution to the travel trade,” said Eduardo Schutte, Hilton’s senior vice president of global sales distribution & services.
“Through this agreement, Travelport-connected travel agents across the globe can readily shop and book from a choice of over 680,100, rooms in 92 countries.”
Simon Ferguson, Travelport’s managing director for UK & Ireland, said the deal formed part of the company’s ‘Beyond Air’ strategy, which aims to boost the amount of non-air content offered to travel agents.
All 4,112 of Hilton’s hotels, resorts and timeshare properties are covered by the deal, encompassing 11 different brands.
