Qantas Holidays expands online
Qantas Holidays is expanding its offering for online travel, with enhancements to its ReadyRooms product and the introduction of Red e-Mail, a new email service that will alert Qantas Holidays customers to the latest holiday, hotel and car hire deals.
Head of Qantas Holidays, Simon Bernardi, said that ReadyRooms, Qantas Holidays’ online booking engine for hotels in Australia and New Zealand, would now offer hotel accommodation for both last minute stays and for travel more than 14 days in advance.
“While many people are now making their travel arrangements at short notice, they also recognise that their choice of hotel may not be available at the last minute,” Mr Bernardi said.
“Expanding ReadyRooms beyond 14 days gives customers added flexibility to plan and book their accommodation.”
In a further enhancement to ReadyRooms, customers are also now able to sort hotel listings by name, rating or price on any individual night and, for larger cities and regions, by their locality.
“ReadyRooms bookings can be made on the actual day of travel or months in advance and a flight booking is not required for any ReadyRooms stay. Qantas Frequent Flyers also earn points when they book and stay at partner hotels.”*
“Whether you’re on a budget or not, it’s just a click to sort by name, rating or price with ReadyRooms.”
Mr Bernardi also announced the launch of Qantas Holidays, new Red e-Mail service. “With Red e-Mail, we can inform our customers about great offers on ReadyRooms and for cars online, and inspire them with suggestions from our huge range of holiday ideas,” he said.
To celebrate the launch of Red e-Mail for holidays, hotels and cars, Qantas Holidays is offering subscribers the chance to win a dream holiday to the value of $20,000. To subscribe to Red e-Mail and find out more about how to win, visit www.qantas.com/redemail and complete the online entry form before 13 March 2006.
