In travel—like in most other walks of life—there is such a thing as ‘too much of a good thing.’ A recent report published by Sabre has argued that the abundance of booking systems (“something that “agents of yesteryear could have only dreamed of!”) is taking a toll on travel agency operations.

Luxury lifestyle brand Nobu Hospitality is further strengthening its relationship with the trade through transitioning hotels onto its Master Chain Code of “NB”. The hospitality company, helmed by world-renowned Chef Nobu Matsuhisa, award-winning Hollywood actor Robert De Niro, and film producer/businessman Meir Teper, continues to expand globally, with 38 hotels open and in development worldwide.

Travelport has introduced the latest update to its next-generation platform, Travelport+. Now available, these enhanced, modern retailing tools are paving the way to revolutionise travel retail, modernise the booking experience, and make it easier for agents to offer more choice and deliver better service to their clients.
