Travel giant Expedia has partnered with Australian technology startup Booking Boss to connect tour operators and trade distributors in a more efficient way.
Booking Boss ceo Renee Welsh says the system represents a very new category of technology for the travel industry, and one that is helping large distributors such as Expedia improve efficiencies in major sectors of their business.
"Expedia can connect in real time via our API to Booking Boss operators to access real time inventory and availability," says Welsh.
"For the consumer this means instant confirmation, no more vouchers, or waiting at the gates of attractions to exchange your voucher for a valid ticket." Expedia supplies some 10,000-plus activities to its users and integrates with 400 airlines. The business also offers more than 250,000 hotel and accommodation options.
