Public statement regarding the Availpro and Orbitz connectivity agreement
XML services
Orbitz Worldwide currently offers several XML services that allow the management of hotel rates and availability. However, contrary to Availpro's press release, such services do not currently deliver hotel reservations details via the same XML service.
Availpro is the all in one online solution developed by Siriona which allows independent hotels to sell their rooms not only on their own websites (thanks to the Availpro booking engine) but also through distributor partners. Management of all e-distributor channels is performed by a single extranet system: Availpro. Over 7,500 hotels use Availpro. Since being founded in 2001, 6.9 million room sales have passed through the Availpro system for a total of 750 million euro.
