Asia ’s leading travel trade publisher and events organiser TTG Asia Media has taken the next step towards creating value for the travel industry. Hoteliers and travel agents can soon look forward to transacting B2B room bookings more efficiently online with Roomonger at www.roomonger.com.

Roomonger offers hotel-direct trade rates with instant confirmation. It is positioned as the travel agent’s resource for instant confirmation rates offered direct by hotels.

Roomonger aims to stay differentiated by being a room inventory resource specialist dedicated to promoting the efficiency of online B2B bookings between hotels and travel agents. The brand is committed to helping travel agents book instantly and directly with hotels on behalf of their travel customers and to helping hotels reach thousands of travel agencies worldwide.

TTG Asia Media has tied up with established travel industry player – Pelican System to develop Roomonger. Pelican System’s customers include hoteliers who use its system to enable direct booking capabilities at the hotel’s website.

Roomonger’s tagline – Where Agents Book With Instant Confidence – reflects the brand’s dedication towards building a large network of worldwide hotels and travel agents where B2B bookings can confidently take place instantly. Roomonger brings greater efficiency to the traditional contracting process so that agents do not need to wait for confirmations on their bookings. Through Roomonger, agents are also able to book with hotels that they do not have existing contracts with. In addition, there is no minimum number of room night bookings to fulfil. On the hotels end, they also have greater flexibility to optimize their yield by adjusting their rates and inventory in Roomonger anytime.

Roomonger makes its first tradeshow debut at PATA Travel Mart 2008, Hyderabad , India . Hotels and travel agents can register to join the program now.
