Travelzen Forms Groundbreaking Partnership with GreenTree Hotels

SHANGHAI, July 7 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- Online travel innovator Travelzen
today announced a pioneering agreement with China's GreenTree Inn Hotel
Management Group, Inc., to bring its clients the full power of the advanced
Travelzen.com booking engine at a unique GreenTree preferential price.
"This agreement brings benefit to everyone," said Li Zhen Ye, Travelzen's
Vice President-Agent Network. "The Travelzen engine gives GreenTree's guests
more flexibility to make their own travel plans, more payment options, and the
best online booking and confirmation services available in China. Our
partners appreciate what we can do, because we are always thinking about what
they need."
Travelzen has positioned itself as the next generation of online travel
service providers through a combination of their advanced booking engine,
superb resource network and international standard of service. The new
agreement allows all GreenTree's guests preferential access to Travelzen's
complete international and domestic flight booking services from the guest
rooms and front desk of each hotel. With almost three hundred hotels across
China and more than one million registered users of GreenTree's
http://www.998.com website, this innovative partnership gives travelers
unprecedented freedom and power to book their own travel and more available
payment methods than any other provider.
With Expo Shanghai 2010 around the corner and inbound and domestic tourist
numbers on the rise, the demand on the convenience hotel market has been
increasing. This new wave of travelers, especially the growing numbers of
mid-level international business travelers, expect to be able to book their
own travel itinerary flexibly and affordably. Travelzen opens the doors of
China's massive convenience hotel market to the world, giving budget-conscious
international travelers access to a reliable convenience hotel chain coupled
with flexible, affordable travel booking from anywhere inside or out of China.
Ted Sze, CEO of Travelzen, said, "GreenTree is a leader in the convenience
hotel market, and it was important for us to create the best possible travel
experience for their guests. Now travelers staying at GreenTree properties
have preferential access to our full range of international and domestic
flights as well as 24 hour service in English and Chinese, no matter how far
they are from home. We want to help people get to where they want to go,
regardless of the city they happen to be in."
Partnerships such as this represent the future of travel booking in China,
as travelers become increasingly aware of their options and demand increased
flexibility and transparency from their service providers. By giving their
clients the tools they need to take control of their own travel experience,
Travelzen and GreenTree have set new standards for the industry to follow.
