Press Release: LeisureLink Inc.
October 20, 2006
PASADENA, CA -- LeisureLink Inc. (www.leisurelink.com) is the newest member of Travelocity’s industry-leading net
rate hotel program. Hundreds of LeisureLink Inc‘s properties worldwide will soon be featured in Travelocity’s hotel
and packaging shopping engines, leveraging Travelocity’s enhanced seamless connectivity.
“We are delighted to expand our relationship with Travelocity,” said Steve Reich, senior vice president, sales
and marketing for LeisureLink. “Travelocity has been a key distributor of our content since the founding of LeisureLink,
and joining its net rate program will raise the visibility of vacation rental properties for the consumer and provide
additional bookings for our clients.”
LeisureLink will take advantage of Travelocity’s fully-automated, two-way CRS connectivity allowing consumers booking
a room on Travelocity to view current rates and room availability.
“We are happy to have LeisureLink properties now available in Travelocity,” said Noreen Henry, vice president of
hotels for Travelocity. “These condos, resorts, and vacation rentals represent a great value to the traveler, and
now to all Travelocity customers. This is yet another opportunity for us to provide our customers with richer content,
wider availability, and more options.”
Leisurelink has vacation rental properties in hundreds of locations throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico
and the Caribbean. The properties include condominiums, timeshare resorts, and condominium hotels. Each property
has its own distinctive character, in contrast to typical hotel lodgings. Vacation rentals offer great value to
families and small groups, since many properties offer multi-bedroom accommodations.
