A new alliance has been formed that will allow Hotels.com customers to purchase a short-term roadside assistance and concierge service program, Trip Assist. Under the exclusive agreement, Trip Assist will be available to travelers booking hotel accommodations online with Hotels.com.
“We know our customers feel confident when making a hotel reservation with Hotels.com. With more travelers driving to their vacation destinations, Trip Assist ensures that same level of confidence while our customers travel to and from their hotel whether it is with local weather information or actual roadside assistance,” said Cheryl Rosner, president of Hotels.com. “Trip Assist perfectly complements Hotels.com Road Trips(TM) as a valuable resource for our customers. Nation Safe Drivers is just the right partner to deliver it.”

“Nation Safe Drivers recognizes that with the rising costs of air travel and other factors influencing travel abroad more Americans will choose to vacation closer to home. Now travelers can feel reassured knowing that Nation Safe Drivers and Hotels.com are in a position to make the trip safer, more affordable and more enjoyable for them and their families,” stated John Moore, director of client relations for Nation Safe Drivers.
