choose which ones to book because some offer better commission rates”

casualties, and there will be more to come. Customer protection is something we take very seriously, ensuring it is reflected in all agency agreements and that selected partners are fully compliant with current ATOL regulations. “Moving into the autumn and winter sales period, Getabed is seeing a definite trend for the UAE, with sales up 104% year on year. Spain is also seeing encouraging forward sales for this winter, at 83% up, and also proving popular are Puerto Rico, Canada and New Zealand.” JacTravel is another long-established company,
specialising in cities including the UK, Paris, Rome, Dubai and North America, with an increasing presence in Asia. “We regard ourselves as a hotel wholesaler rather than a bedbank, and we have been trading for 14 years,” says Chief Executive Officer Terry Williamson. “We sell ourselves on content, availability and
price-competitiveness, especially in the UK where we also do inbound business. We sell purely on nett rates, through a web portal or XML. We don’t need to offer financial protection as we don’t sell to consumers – our trade partners take care of that.” Bookabed is a fairly new name as it has been trading in Britain only since early 2013, but it is the biggest bedbank in Ireland where it was established in 1994. Head of UK Sales Darren Hall says it works only with independent agents. “There’s always a novelty factor with a new brand, but we held a forum with our top 20 agents asking what exactly they wanted, and delivered features such as TripAdvisor hotel reviews,” he adds. “Little things like talking to the same staff make all the difference for agents, and our top destinations include the Canaries, Malta, Greece, Turkey, the US and also the UK.” •
