Selling Package Travel on Your Website  

OmniTourism™ offers a simple turnkey solution to merchandising travel packages on your Bureau’s Web Site.  This simple solution allows the consumer to buy hotels and attractions over the Internet and your Bureau shares in the revenue without significant expense or effort.     This system is currently deployed in several other Bureaus around the country and many are enjoying a significant new distribution channel for their travel products and more importantly new revenue streams to enhance their overall marketing program.

The number of Americans who researched trips on the Internet grew only slightly in 2002, to about 64 million, reflecting a leveling off of wired households, according to the Travel Industry Assn. of America. But more than 39 million did more than look. They booked. That figure was up 25% from 2001, the association says.
