It’s a simple yes/no question, but the answers seem to be causing controversy. Recently there have been bold claims travel agencies are becoming redundant in favour of online travel booking. Yet if you pop out to your local highstreet you’ll still see the likes of Thomas Cook and Trailfinders.

When you think about it, if you’re working 9-5, Monday to Friday do you really have time to go out and book a holiday? Surely online travel booking is much more appealing? It certainly seems that way for most, with over 45% of people now booking trips online – an increase of more than 10% in just four years. Research clearly suggests the presence of physical travel agencies are on their way out. Read on to find out how you can prevent loss of custom through implementation of online travel booking software.

Enhance Online Travel Bookings

As well as supplying expert online booking systems to tour and activity centres, BookingLive’s online booking systems integrate with multiple add-ons and plugins. We ensure all your customer’s online travel queries can be answered via your website.

Skyscanner

With the Skyscanner integration your customers can quickly and easily compare cheap flights, car hire and more. This helps to simplify their online travel booking journey and promotes the ease of use your site provides, increasing chances of repeat bookings.

Google Maps

The ever-popular Google Maps feature can be added to your online booking system so your customers can find personalised directions to your venue. Not only does this save your customers time, but it also prevents staff members having to respond to multiple direction queries.

Postcoder

Allies Computing’s clever piece of software saves your customers time and provides an impressive booking journey. Customers simply enter their postcode and click to look-up their address, rather than having to enter it all manually.
