Advantage accommodates more hotel partners
Advantage Travel Centres has increased its preferred hotel partners to 15 with the addition of COMO Hotels & Resorts and Jurys Inn.
The move follows a claimed 20% rise in hotel business worldwide by the consortium last year.
The number of hotels offering incentives to Advantage agents has increased to more than 12,000, with the addition of Wyndham Hotels, joining chains such as Hilton and Intercontinental.
Business travel director Norman Gage said: “A number of members earned well over £1,500 from hotel incentives in 2007, the addition of Wyndham Hotels portfolio offers our members an even greater earning opportunity in 2008.â€
Advantage Travel Centres has produced a directory featuring more than 18,000 hotels offering negotiated and preferred rates to its members.
The directory offers savings off the rack rates and many hotels have guaranteed best rate availability. Properties featured range from three to five star hotels, in all major countries, cities and towns.
