Orbitz for Business to expand globally

Orbitz for Business plans to expand its international booking platform to non-English speaking European markets in 2009 and is on schedule for its planned November launch of a U.K. point-of-sale, according to COO and senior vice president Dean Sivley.

Meanwhile, this month the travel management company will consolidate the former Travelport for Business with Orbitz for Business creating more flexible travel policy configuration for its customers.

Orbitz for Business will not actively sell to non-English speaking local markets. While Orbitz for Business now uses Galileo and Worldspan as its global distribution system providers, Sivley said the international launch could call for further diversification of its GDS portfolio. “The one we have to reserve judgment on is Amadeus in a few markets in Europe, but right now there are no plans to do that,” he said.
