Travelport and Carlson Wagonlit Travel (CWT) have today announced an expanded multi-year, global agreement.
The agreement builds upon the two companies’ already long standing relationship and creates a long-term commercial framework to lead and define the working partnership between the two organizations through to the next decade.
As part of the agreement, CWT Travel Counselors will continue to have access to Travelport’s unsurpassed travel content inventory, which includes fares and now ancillaries from the world’s leading network and low cost carriers, as well as its industry leading merchandising and desktop technology. Travelport will, in turn, benefit from new and incremental business from CWT in certain targeted countries in Europe and the Pacific regions.
Gordon Wilson, president and CEO, Travelport commented: “This new agreement with CWT represents a strong, long term commitment to Travelport and expands the successful global partnership we have enjoyed now for many years – it clearly demonstrates how positively CWT view both our team and our Travel Commerce Platform offering.”
Doug Anderson, president and CEO, CWT commented: “At CWT, we know that to provide best-in-class support to our clients and their travelers, we must balance the latest digital technology with outstanding customer service, today and in the future. Our new agreement with Travelport allows us to continue to do just that.”
