BookLogic partners with Skyscanner to boost hotel sales

BookLogic has partnered with Skyscanner to expand exposure and sales reach for its hotel clients through the leading meta search engine.

The hotel revenue management technology company is offering a direct connection to the meta search engine to help its hotel clients reach a wider market.

Skyscanner will sell BookLogic’s customers’ available rooms while still processing the booking through the BookLogic booking engine.

BookLogic has reached an agreement to expand the reach for its hotel clients into new markets, while setting a fixed commission allowing hotels to take advantage of greater marketing exposure across Skyscanner with no additional cost.

“Skyscanner will be immediately available to our clients, who will benefit from a greater sales network that will give them more flexibility in rate setting and distribution,” said Oral Yigitkus, chief executive, BookLogic.

“Our hotel clients will benefit from maximised sales and exposure without suffering from increasing costs of distribution through our system. Skyscanner is a strong brand in the travel space that is helping to increase bookings from a wider traveller network.”

Hotels subscribed to BookLogic’s technology and services will benefit from full integration with booking engines’ CRS.

It will allow hotels to post room availability and rates to a wider network to increase bookings and overall RevPAR through its existing BookLogic system.

BookLogic customers simply need to request to add the channel to its existing sales channels.

Nikhil Gupta, director of hotels at Skyscanner commented: “We are pleased to welcome BookLogic on board as a new partner.

“This partnership with BookLogic will allow millions of travellers who use Skyscanner to book directly with Hotels.

“Our Hotels product at Skyscanner continues to grow and develop, and we are constantly striving to work with the very best in the industry to deliver great services to travellers.”

BookLogic was named the World’s Leading Travel Technology Innovation at the World Travel Awards 2015 and has been nominated for a second year for Europe’s Leading Hotel Booking Solutions Provider 2016 at the World Travel Awards 2016.
