NEW YORK, July 21, 2004 - While most discount travel companies cater to families and individuals, one new Web site is focusing on giving corporate travelers deep discounts. Launched this week, TravelSlot.com (www.TravelSlot.com ) offers businesses and their employees up to 70% off group and individual rates on thousands of hotel rooms, airfares, car rentals and cruises.
That's significantly cheaper than some of the big names in online travel-but the beauty of TravelSlot.com, said company founder and president Charles Dunbar, is its simplicity.
"There is no special program for businesses to join, and we don't force our corporate clients to set up complicated co-branded Web sites," Dunbar explained. "Even smaller companies can take advantage of the significant savings on domestic and international travel at TravelSlot.com."
Trips can be booked through the site's secure server or via 24-hour toll-free telephone customer service. A discount code allows businesses and individuals around the world to get the lowest possible rates when they make their reservations.
For businesses sending several employees to conferences, training or on other group trips, the site offers special rates on reservations for five or more hotel rooms. And when the day's work is done, the TravelSlot.com Destination Guide gives travelers the lowdown on local restaurants, entertainment, nightlife, attractions and more.
Along with the Destination Guide, TravelSlot.com also has an innovative road trip planning tool and deals on cruises and vacation rentals, making the site a top choice for leisure travelers as well. To ensure travelers enjoy their vacations to the fullest, TravelSlot.com will soon display customer reviews for each hotel. Add those features to the industry-leading travel discounts and it equals a value-added option for employers wanting to beef up their employee benefit packages at no extra cost, said Dunbar.
"It costs employers nothing to let their employees know about TravelSlot.com, and in doing so, they can potentially save their employees hundreds of dollars on personal travel," Dunbar said. "Between the discount the company receives on corporate travel and the morale boost its employees experience when saving money on vacations, it's a win-win situation for any business."
