FastBooking, an online solutions providers for the hospitality industry, and Travelport, a business services provider to the global travel industry (GDS), have reached an agreement through which FastBooking client hotels are displayed and bookable on Travelport’s recently launched hotel booking tool for travel agents.

Alain Hirschfeld, Marketing Director, Business Development, FastBooking, said, “Our goal is to increase our hotels’ online business with travel agencies worldwide and to consolidate our position in this high-potential segment. The agreement with Travelport, one of the leading GDS players, is coherent with our strategy of developing a quality distribution network for our hotel clients by working with strong international partners.”

Travelport Rooms and More combines the metasearch functionality and user interface developed by Sprice.com, which was acquired by Travelport in May 2010, with Travelport’s core B-to-B expertise to deliver a completely integrated hotel booking platform.

The partnership will boost the visibility of FastBooking client hotels among the 65,000 connected travel agency customers in the worldwide Travelport network.
