Packages

Many lodging providers realize selling packages is smart, as they provide your guest with a better overall experience and add to the profitability of your business. There are two general places to sell your Packages:

1. Packages on your web site or a Portal Build you own custom package with complete control over the rooms, items, pricing, dates, and minimum stay requirements. Example: 'Romance Package' combine a room, flowers, and a bottle of wine, etc… and sell it from your website with a two night minimum, available any day of the week. Example: Midweek Package. Bundle a room, a meal + a spa treatment, etc… and sell as a package to increase midweek bookings. Available Sunday – Thursday only.
2. Packages on the GDS systemsChoose your rooms, rates, dates, and minimum stay requirements, and allow travel agents and large travel portals to add it to their systems to sell as a 'Package'. Example: Business PackagesProvide the GDS systems (travel agents and corporate planners) with a special rate and stay restrictions from Sunday – Thursday for business travelers requiring early breakfast, business office services provided by your staff, and 'turn down' service.  A great way to entice mid-week business travel to your inn. Example: Orbitz Package : Provide a Bed, Breakfast, and Spa Package that Orbitz will sell as a composite package to its millions of shoppers.
