InterContinental Hotels Group has agreed to participate in Travelport’s Best Available Rate program.
Travelport said travel agents using the Apollo, Galileo and Worldspan distribution systems are “guaranteed instant access to the best available published, non-restricted rates from IHG.” A direct connection to IHG’s reservations system will improve the shopping process for Galileo and Apollo users. By the end of 2011, IHG will upgrade its GDS interface through the Travelport XML Pro Technology Solution, which will enable IHG to return detailed information in response to agents’ requests for availability, rates and rules, Travelport said. Travelport said the technology eliminates the need for IHG to use a third-party solution for GDS interface. IHG established such a direct connection with Worldspan in 2008. IHG’s brands are Holiday Inn, Holiday Inn Express, InterContinental, Crowne Plaza, Hotel Indigo, Staybridge Suites and Candlewood Suites.Travelport said travel agents using the Apollo, Galileo and Worldspan distribution systems are “guaranteed instant access to the best available published, non-restricted rates from IHG.” A direct connection to IHG’s reservations system will improve the shopping process for Galileo and Apollo users.
