Marks the second Expedia company to select HBSi
ATLANTA (December 10, 2009) – HBSi, an IBS Group company, now includes Classic Vacations® as one of the many travel distribution partners using its connectivity solution. Classic Vacations, an operating company of Expedia, Inc.®, is known for providing luxury travel experiences to some of the world’s great destinations. Classic Vacations will connect to HBSi’s iDemand Gateway, an integrated channel management and connectivity solution for hotel companies. The iDemand Gateway entirely automates the complex business rules surrounding connectivity for Tour Operators and Hotels. With this advanced automation, Classic Vacations will have immediate access to the very best and often limited room categories of its hotel partners, including contracted allotments as well as dynamic rates and promotions. Classic Vacations has successfully implemented HyperTech Solutions’ PleX® Travel Suite to automate its operations. “HBSi is a significant provider to hotels with a global presence, and this is an important integration for Classic Vacations, our customers and for HyperTech,” said Rakesh Mishra, president of HyperTech Solutions. “By developing a seamless link between the systems, our customers can benefit from the broadest range of product, competitive rates and pricing—combined with the best level of access.” “With HBSi, we will be able to fulfill our customers’ requests instantaneously and accurately, which helps maintain our competitive advantage” said David Hu, co-president of Classic Vacations.” “The addition of Classic Vacations to our network is good not only for Classic® but for our hotel partners, who now more than ever seek to quickly expand the rate and reach of their leisure distribution,” said HBSi COO Greg Berman. “With our connectivity expertise and flexible platform, Classic can activate a new hotel partner in less than one week.” Media Contact: Lisa Barker,
