Agoda partnership brings travel agents even more great hotel content

This deal will give travel agents access to pre-paid hotel content from more than 150,000 properties globally, with an especially strong selection of Asian content, through the Amadeus Travel Platform. Travel agents all over the world will now be able to view Agoda’s content – available at the same price as its website – and compare it to other content through a single screen, and book the content in one PNR with other content

Having access to this hotel content through the Amadeus Travel Platformwill be especially important for business travel agents. They will now be able to book Agoda inventory for travelling employees that complies with all the employer’s Duty of Care requirements, and add it to a single PNR with the employee’s other travel arrangements. Plus more hotel options means less out of policy bookings, which are hard to track, add costs, and makes it impossible for the employer to provide proper duty of care. In addition, Agoda’s content is pre-paid, making it a great option for employees that don’t have a company credit card. 

This is our first partnership with a B2C company in Asia. It’s an especially important one because it enables travel sellers to offer a competitive and all-in-one service, while reducing costs and increasing efficiency. We’re privileged to be the first company to globally distribute Agoda’s diverse selection of hotels to agents and travelers. 

This exciting partnership with Agoda will expand our hotel portfolio bringing the more great content to the travel agency community around the world, while boosting the vibrancy of the Amadeus Travel Platform, the technological backbone of the Live Travel Space.
