The one stop travel website aims to shift the power of information and decision making from the travel agent to the consumer.
Speaking at the launch, Tareq Abdullatif Taha, CEO of Regency Travel & Tours, said: “The timing is ideal for Regency Travel & Tours to enter the growing online booking engine market in this part of the world with a new version of its website.
“The Qatar Travel & Tourism industry has been ranked among one of the top in the Middle East and has shown enormous growth of online bookings in the past couple of years, Internet and e commerce sales are likely to touch quite a number. Economic development, a tech-savvy consumer base, expanding business opportunities and a culture of hospitality makes Qatar ripe for online travel market growth.”
