Expedia has inked a new agreement to offer Orbitz Worldwide’s inventory through the Amadeus global distribution system.
It extends the agreement it already has for other Expedia brands Hotwire, Travelocity, Wotif Group, Expedia Affiliate Network and Egencia.
"Expedia’s commitment is to deliver an exceptional air shopping and booking experience by making it easy for travelers to find exactly what they want. Amadeus helps Expedia to be the very best place to shop for flights," said Greg Schulze, senior vice president, global tour and transport at Expedia, Inc.
It builds on the two companies’ existing ‘Upgrade Options’ program.
Upgrade Options is available for several North American and European carriers and includes pre-booked checked baggage on some sites.
"We are excited to expand our partnership and to continue working together to power innovative travel experiences to delight consumers worldwide," says Holger Taubmann, senior vice president, distribution at Amadeus.
