Travelfusion has developed the world's largest Direct Connect travel distribution system - connecting 180+ airline, rail and hotel operators with direct distribution to over one hundred of the world's largest travel leisure and corporate agents (OTAs - online travel agents, SBTs - self booking tools and TMCs - travel management companies) and travel e-commerce organisations such as the GDS, system integrators and ERP solutions. Travelfusion's business model is based on FREE distribution to travel suppliers and a small per transaction fee charged to each agent.

The system integration with travel suppliers is based on either Travelfusion's proprietary screen scraping technologies or XML APIs. All integration work and ongoing maintenance with the suppliers systems/web sites is FREE of charge. The main value added by Travelfusion to airlines and rail operators in the direct connect model is:

  • Cost-effective distribution channel - access to the world's largest direct connect distribution channel free of charge - including the world's largest leisure and corporate agencies.
  • Free integration with the Travelfusion network of travel suppliers
  • Branding and presence - suppliers and agents will automatically appear on the results pages of the agencies with which a client wishes to work, providing a cost-effective distribution arm for services and markets that would traditionally be extremely costly to penetrate.
  • Market intelligence - FREE access to highly detailed online reports that list a supplier's market share in comparison to other suppliers that serve similar routes/network coverage, along with main bookers, look to book ratios - all types of data that are traditionally provided through a paid service from the GDS.
  • Control - suppliers and clients achieve full transparency in striking commercial deals directly with agents as well as control of which agencies/customers to authorise and monitor over a variety of matrices.

If you are an airline or a rail operator and you wish to join the world's most cost effective third party distribution system by Travelfusion, please contact us at: sales@travelfusion.com
