Bedbank Upgrades Online Booking
JANUARY 12, 2006. Trade-only accommodation specialist bedbank.net is adding 20 new destinations, including the Eastern Mediterranean, to the service as well as an upgraded online booking system.
Bedbank, which is a joint venture between travel technology company the Vertical Group and home-working agency Future Travel, also features a new worldwide city breaks programme, as well as luxury and beaches accommodation sections. Bedbank has also developed an XML feed to enable travel agents to offer their customers an online booking facility on their own websites.
Vertical Group chief executive Peter Healey said: "We have a great team of travel experts in Bedbank, led by General Manager Janette Bell. Bedbank has not forgotten the old travel values and places a high emphasis on customer service and product delivery and all at highly competitive rates.
We have a great working relationship with our agents with both website and call centre. Working together with the Vertical Group, Bedbank will continue to upgrade through to January 2006."
