Travelclick has teamed with Castle Resorts & Hotels, a growing international chain of 25 hotels and resort condominiums in the Pacific, to provide GDS connectivity and IDS distribution. The new GDS chain code, WV, is available across all four GDS platforms.
Under the terms of the agreement, Castle Resorts will use Travelclick’s iHotelier central reservation system to distribute inventory to, and manage reservations for, hundreds of thousands of travel agents on the GDS as well as third-party travel websites shopped by millions of consumers every day.
“Travelclick has proven its ability to maximize visibility and online bookings for our unique portfolio of properties,” said Alan Mattson, president and COO for Castle Resorts & Hotels. “We are confident Travelclick’s GDS connectivity solutions will help us achieve even higher levels of performance by showcasing our properties throughout all electronic channels around the globe. We want to connect with travel agents instantaneously and seamlessly to further target guests and drive demand, and Travelclick will allow us to do that.”
