Travelport and Go4Travel have today announced a multiyear renewal agreement which will see the largest Portuguese group of travel agencies continue to deploy Travelport’s platform and the widest choice of relevant content for travel buyers and consumers. Founded in November 2007, Go4Travel has a team of 700 professionals across 98 sales desks throughout the country, as well as the Azores and Madeira.
This renewed partnership, means that Go4Travel will also continue to adopt Travelport’s industry leading point of sale solution, Travelport Smartpoint, as its agency desktop to book travel, work smarter and increase revenues. Smartpoint, which was recently enhanced to further accelerate agent efficiency, provides agents access to extensive travel content from over 400 airlines, including branded fares and ancillaries such as bags, meals or lounge passes from both network and low cost carriers. Go4Travel’s team can also access via Travelport more than 650,000 hotels and 36,000 car rental distributors.
Vitor Filipe, President of Go4Travel commented: “This renewed partnership with Travelport is great news and strengthens the association between the two companies that began in 1994. We have enjoyed a close and trusting relationship with Travelport over the years, particularly with António Loureiro and Gordon Wilson, now CEO. We strongly believe that both companies will continue to achieve great results in the future together.”
Antonio Loureiro, Regional Country Manager at Travelport Portugal said: “We are thrilled that GO4travel have chosen Travelport again as its travel technology partner. As one of our key customers in Portugal, we look forward to working closely with the team to help it to continue to offer the most informed, competitive and unrivalled services to corporate and leisure customers in Portugal.”
