ATDW and V3 Alliance: Tourism Exchange Australia
ATDW has launched a breakthrough initiative in digital marketing for the entire Australian tourism industry, with the signing of an alliance with V3, delivering Australia's first truly inclusive booking exchange. ATDW has teamed with V3 to provide a new service, Tourism Exchange Australia (TXA), using V3's unique Open Booking ExchangeTM technology. TXA links tourism providers with distributors and is an industry-wide initiative, covering accommodation, tours, attractions and events.
The TXA provides all types of tourism distributors, including travel agents and online publishers, with access to the tourism companies' real-time price and availability; and importantly the opportunity to book directly with the tourism supplier online or use their own booking engine. Please visit Tourism Exchange Australia and Press Releases for more information on this exciting venture.
