Group booking provider MeetingPackage has partnered with travel tech company Amadeus to assist hotel customers with their meetings and events sales processes across direct and indirect channels. Hoteliers can use MeetingPackage for their booking engine and manage channel distribution strategies—all connected with Amadeus’ Sales and Event Management platform.
The partnership will benefit hoteliers by supporting increased conversion of group business and streamlining operational processes as they provide meeting planners with a view of available function space that can be reserved online. Additionally, meeting planners looking to book events on the MeetingPackage platform will be able to quickly identify whether the function space is available and affordable.
The Amadeus and MeetingPackage partnership offers hoteliers the ability to capture more group business with technology. The integration will allow hoteliers to configure event packages including food and beverage, audio-visual equipment and other services, which can be easily booked online by meeting planners right up to the day of arrival.
Joonas Ahola, CEO and founder of MeetingPackage, said: “As hoteliers look for new ways to streamline and optimize their business processes for increased revenue, integration of technology solutions is critical. Providing an online booking capability for group and event business is a key component of hotel sales digitalization as manual processes have become unsustainable and meeting planners want to quickly confirm budget and availability before booking the business.”
