Aman Travels Limited Taps Pegasus for Hotel Booking Site

Aman Travels Limited, a New Delhi-based travel company, has tapped Pegasus Solutions to power its online hotel booking site at http://www.lasthotelroom.com/. Through Pegasus’ UltraDirect connection, lasthotelroom.com will now offer India’s $8.2 billion travel market direct, real-time access to more than 90,000 hotels worldwide.

The agreement serves as an extension to Aman’s long-standing relationship with Pegasus. Earlier this year, Aman Travels became the official sales representative for Pegasus’ representation service, Utell Hotels & Resorts; selling Utell’s more than 11,000 member hotels to local and regional travel agencies, travel management companies (TMCs), corporations and consortia groups in India.

Aman is also a long-time Pegasus financial services customer, using the company’s market-leading commission processing services to pay travel agents booking hotels sold by Aman. Housing the largest collection of electronically bookable hotels, Pegasus offers Aman a distinct advantage in establishing lasthotelroom.com as the go-to site for online shoppers in the region.

Pegasus’ UltraDirect provides lasthotelroom.com fast, immediate confirmation of booking and cancellation requests, as well as the ability to access to negotiated rates, according to Deepak Narula, managing director of Aman Travels Limited.
