BookIt.com®,
a leading online travel company, today announced the launch of a new
feature, “Phone Free Pricing,” a self-booking discount program that will
significantly lower prices for guests who complete their booking without
the need of one of the company’s booking agents. As the company works to
add features to lower prices and benefit guests, it will restructure
existing departments and positions.
According to a recent survey of past BookIt.com® guests, the
overwhelming factor leading travelers to select and book a vacation is
finding the lowest price. BookIt.com is dedicated and determined to
elate their guests and has introduced this program to save travelers the
most money while booking trips.
“We are pleased to offer our guests an easy-to-use travel site that
always offers the best price,” said Bud Finlaw, chief executive officer
and president of BookIt.com. “We remain focused on not simply satisfying
guests, but elating them, as we continue to grow our brand and offerings
to travelers.”
BookIt.com guests will still have access to a strong team of
representatives trained to assist travelers with guest elation and
sales. Additionally, BookIt.com announced the opening of a new
technology center in Orlando, Fla. that has already attracted
experienced web programmers to the BookIt.com team.
“We expect that the software development team will be completely moved
to Orlando by the end of the year,” said Iain Saxton, vice president of
technology at BookIt.com.
The changes at BookIt.com position the company to intensely focus on
elating guests through its technology, “Phone-Free Pricing,” its ease of
use and by offering the lowest prices.
