UK – Snow sports specialist Wasteland Ski has formed a partnership with Interhome, one of the world’s leading vacation rental portfolios with the connection technology being provided by Pathway GDS.
“We have seen strong year on year growth of our website traffic and to meet that demand it was vital to source good quality ski accommodation in the right areas that customers can easily book online. Having evaluated a number of options, Interhome quickly emerged as an ideal partner, with its breadth of product across resorts in which Wasteland has seen consistently high demand. Pathway GDS enabled us to quickly integrate Interhome’s properties into our website & reservation system as well as letting customers purchase those vital extras like ski hire and lift passes.”
Paul Cummings, Interhome’s Commercial Director for the UK & Ireland also believes the link-up is a very good fit for both businesses: “Interhome’s ski portfolio is a really strong part of our inventory and working with snow sports specialists like Wasteland Ski is the ideal way to help us increase sales of ski accommodation in the UK market.”
Managing director of Pathway GDS James Marchant noted that the inventory also represents an opportunity for Wasteland to increase its summer sales: “Ski chalets and apartments offer the perfect accommodation option for the cyclists and hikers who hit the mountains once the snow has gone and we are seeing this dual purpose use as an emerging trend in the sector.”
