Macau.com and Expedia affiliate network announce strategic partnership for online travel booking

Macau.com, the leading online destination-marketing portal in Macau, announced a new strategic partnership with Expedia Affiliate Network (EAN), part of Expedia Inc. The deal will give visitors to Macau.com access to over 149,000 hotels worldwide, using EAN’s latest state-of-the-art hotel booking platform, Chameleon.

Macau.com’s customers will be able to take advantage of the best deals on hotel rooms and industry leading availability and rates. EAN’s best price guarantee will be valid for all bookings and customers will have access to its extensive customer-service infrastructure. In addition, TripAdvisor’s user-generated reviews will be displayed when searching for a hotel on the website, helping Macau-bound visitors select the perfect hotel for their trip.

“This partnership combines Macau.com’s unrivalled local expertise and destination marketing platform with EAN’s best-in-class booking platform. This combination enables us to double the volume and distribution for our hotel partners,” said Mitchell Tan, General Manager of Macau.com. “We are now positioned to deliver an unbeatable user experience for customers who are looking to plan and book their trips to Macau.”

Henrik Kjellberg, President of Expedia Affiliate Network, said: “Macau.com is the leader in online destination marketing content for Macau, the highest growth tourism destination in Asia. We are extremely excited to work with them and be able to provide access to a tremendous increase in Macau hotel inventory via EAN’s hotel booking platform.”

Linking the online leaders in global travel and Macau destination marketing creates a powerful nexus for promoting Asia’s fastest growing tourism and entertainment hub. The new partnership comes on the heels of a commercial cooperation between Macau.com and Expedia, which kicked off in January 2012, to distribute tickets for Macau live entertainment shows.

Macau is Asia’s highest-growth destination and the world’s top gaming center. Tourist volume is rapidly increasing because of the city’s numerous travel, entertainment, retail, and MICE options. In 2011, nearly 28 million visitors arrived in Macau, with more than half of them visiting from Mainland China.
