Galileo, a leading Global Distribution System (GDS) and Hong Kong Tourism Board (HKTB), recently announced a joint initiative to reward the Indian travel trade. This first-of-a-kind programme utilises the strength of the GDS distribution to augment the Indian arrivals into Hong Kong. The 60-day activity is targeted at over 6,000 agencies in 11,000 touch points, which are spread in 333 cities in India. As part of the programme, any Indian travel agency creating a booking to Hong Kong or beyond will be eligible for the promotion and hence an opportunity to win rewards, like HK trips, laptops, iPhone and LCD’s. The promotion is valid till March 27, 2009. These rewards will be directly proportionate to the productivity of the travel agency.
“Hong Kong as a destination is very well connected out of India, already more than ten airlines operate between the two countries and all are part of our distribution network. This programme is a step into a series of such promotions, Galileo and its partners will present all new value-add propositions that enhance productivity and profitability exclusively among its connected agencies. |
