Call centre services
Customers can also benefit from our 'state of the art'
call centre facilities where skilled consultants offer
a rapid solution to all your hotel requirements. Travellers
can call the centre 24 hours a day seven days a week,
enabling them to book hotel reservations at anytime, and
from anywhere in the world.
The call centre and online service are by no means mutually
exclusive as both delivery options share the same direct
connectivity to hotel Central Reservation Systems. In
addition to this all the customer booking information
is held on the same database. This allows us to offer
a seamless service to our customers whether they book
by telephone or online. Indeed many of our clients prefer
to start by utilising both booking methods and then move
progressively towards a online booking process at the
rate appropriate to their needs. For example, it can be
done on a division by division basis and can be easily
extended to associate companies/business units/business
regions.
XML Subscriber Interfaces
For customers requiring booking solutions for B2C websites
we are able to provide an XML interface to our booking
engine which supports real-time and allocation/freesale
based transactions. The interface allows customers to
integrate our hotel booking engine seamlessly within their
website or travel portal, and maintain total control over
the user interface. The service is also supported by our
call-centre, which allows our customers to totally outsource
their hotel booking service to TCT.
