Skyscanner and HotelsCombined Partnership Takes Off
Travel
search site Skyscanner has launched new hotel search functionality at http://www.skyscanner.net/hotels. Powered
by HotelsCombined, the hotel search function allows Skyscanner users to search
over 200,000 hotels across 195 countries, comparing prices from the biggest
suppliers in the business such as Holiday Inn, Hilton, Booking.com, Hotels.com
and LateRooms.com.
Frank
Skivington, commercial VP for Skyscanner said: “As well as finding the cheapest
flights and car hire, now Skyscanner users can find the cheapest hotels too.
It’s all part of the strategy for Skyscanner to become a one stop shop for
travel, building on our already immensely popular flight search engine.”
Skivington added: "Industry expertise was the
foundation for the partnership. We wanted to ensure we partnered with a
provider that understood the complexities of travel price comparison.
HotelsCombined's knowledge is comprehensive, their private branding solution
flexible and they offer currency and language facilities to cater to the
worldwide market.”
Yury Shar, Managing Director of HotelsCombined welcomed the new
partnership: “We
are extremely pleased to partner with Skyscanner. This partnership offers
tremendous benefits to Skyscanners’ users who can now search and find the
perfect accommodation deal by comparing the best travel sites. For our supplier
partners this is an exciting distribution expansion made seamless by the
sophistication of HotelsCombined’s advanced partnership platform.”
