XILERATE,
United News and Media’s new media division has closed its holiday Web site –
uTravel.co.uk.
Xilerate
blamed “extremely competitive” conditions in the on-line business to
consumer
travel market for its decision.
The
site launched in August 1999 and was intended to provide leisure
travellers with
holiday and destination information before directing them
to their nearest travel agent to make their booking.
