CCRA Offers Refundable Net Rates for Travel Agents

travel agentCCRA Travel Solutions reports it has enhanced its net rate booking category for travel agents who use the CCRAtravel.com hotel portal. Hotel reservations made using the portal's discounted Safety Net rate category may now be cancelled without penalty. 

CCRA notes this is a popular booking category for agents (especially independent agents and non-GDS users) because it allows them to set their own mark-up on deeply discounted net rates offered at tens of thousands of hotels worldwide.

Agents can now have assurances that if their client's plans change, their hotel reservations may be refundable based on the individual hotel's refund policies at the time of booking, CCRA says.

"Agents now have significantly greater flexibility when booking net rates, even for their corporate clients, and can enjoy the peace of mind of knowing that if their client’s plans change, the reservation may be refundable based on the hotel’s cancellation policy at the time of booking. In addition to the added protection afforded by the new refundable booking feature, travel agents can set their own mark-up on these discounted net rates and still offer more competitive pricing than their clients can find online,” said Dic Marxen, president and CEO of CCRA.

CCRAtravel.com currently has real-time inventory at over 180,000 hotels worldwide, as well as a choice of five rate categories including CCRA Preferred, Net, GDS, Internet and 15 Percent Enhanced Commission rates. Travel Agents can mark-up CCRA’s net rates by up to 100 percent.  Refundable rates will be based on the individual cancellation policy of each hotel at the time of booking, CCRA said.
