WorldRes has an extensive portfolio of hotels throughout the world, many of which are smaller, independently owned properties currently without the means to access such pivotal leads. Through our partnership with Genares all our hotels can be added to the GDS giving them access to over 600,000 travel agents using SABRE, Galileo, Worldspan and Amadeus,” said Feargal Mooney, WRI Chief Operating Officer. “We believe that their offering of second generation seamless connectivity to GDS will result in best in class technology and service for all WorldRes properties giving them access to extensive global distribution and continuous GDS technology improvements in the future”.
“We are committed to working with WorldRes to provide global-leading GDS representation for all their hotels, which offer us excellent geographical spread of product,” said Ursula Rhode, Genares executive vice president, global services. “Coupled with continuous technology development and a series of joint marketing campaigns, the WorldRes portfolio will be well promoted within the travel agent community.”
