CarTrawler and Atlantic Airways have today announced an agreement to provide online car rental for the Faroe Islands’ airline. CarTrawler will be supplying the Faorese carrier access to over 450 branded and independent car rental suppliers in 17,000 locations and 130 countries around the world.

CarTrawler will supply its car rental content across all Atlantic Airways’ sales channels, presenting car rental options in an unbiased display within the airline’s online booking flow. CarTrawler will also enable Atlantic to upsell car rental at key customer touch points from the point of booking until just before departure.

This is the first time Atlantic Airways will offer online car rental to its customers. The airline flies between the Faroe Islands and Copenhagen and Billund in Denmark, Reykjavik - Iceland, UK - London, Sweden - Stockholm, Norway - Stawanger.  CarTrawler will provide extensive car rental choice in all these (and most global) locations and in localised language (including Faroese).

“We are delighted to be working with such a progressive airline as Atlantic,” comments Robin White, Sales Manager, CarTrawler. “By working with CarTrawler, Atlantic Airways is adding an important revenue stream to its bottom line. It has a streamlined, but strong, route network and we are confident car rental will be a key part of the booking choice in the years to come.”

Henny a Liknargotu, Marketing Co-ordinator of Atlantic Airways comments: “CarTrawler is the largest provider of car rental booking solutions in the world, with an audience of over 120 million passengers.  The fact that CarTrawler provides us with a multi-supplier option in all of our key destinations made the choice a simple and obvious one for us.”
