	Hotelbeds launches new partnership with VisitDallas to drive inbound tourism from the United States, with a particular focus on mid-week and long weekend visits.
	The campaign will target Hotelbeds' extensive network of travel trade buyers in the US and will highlight the many attractions Dallas has to offer for all travellers.


Palma, Spain, 8th July 2021 – Hotelbeds, the world’s leading bedbank, has announced today a new deal with VisitDallas, an independent, not-for-profit organization that promotes Dallas as a business and pleasure destination, to drive domestic in-bound tourism to the US city. &nbsp;&nbsp;

This campaign is designed to drive domestic leisure tourism to Dallas, with a particular focus on weekday and long weekend visits. Throughout the promotion travel advisors will be introduced to the incredible opportunities that the Texan city of Dallas has to offer: its wide offer of art, culture and music, sporting events, gastronomic offerings, and the city's unique culture.

The company strongly believes in Dallas' potential as a tourist destination, as it has consistently been one of the top producing destinations in the U.S. for Hotelbeds. As a result, the Hotelbeds sourcing team has secured exclusive rates and promotions at local hotels for its network of travel advisors – special offers created to support this campaign and attract US travellers, while helping to drive the city's tourism recovery.

The campaign, which will run throughout the summer – from early July to the end of September – will be available through Hotelbeds' two main distribution channels: Bedsonline, targeting retail travel agencies, and Hotelbeds, focused on wholesale distribution.

Gareth Matthews, Marketing, Communications &amp; CSR Director at Hotelbeds, commented: “It is great to be working with VisitDallas once again to fuel their tourism recovery. Dallas has historically been one of the most consistent performing destinations in our US portfolio and we have a great inventory of hotels that our Sourcing team has spent years developing strong commercial relationships with. Big thank you to Mark Thompson and Liliana Rivera from VisitDallas for their continued partnership and trust in Hotelbeds’ Destination Marketing team to promote their great destination to the travel trade and fuel the recovery efforts.”

Mark Thompson, Senior Vice President Visit Dallas, added: “VisitDallas is honored to partner with Hotelbeds to promote our city to consumers as visitors’ desire to travel increases. We are excited that our hotels are putting together attractive offers for visitors to enjoy and look forward to seeing them exploring our city.

Hotelbeds signs strategic agreement with  French hospitality chain, All Suites


	
	Hotelbeds has signed an agreement with the Samoa Tourism Authority, to boost in-bound tourism from Australia and New Zealand to the idyllic island of Samoa.
	
	The campaign will target Hotelbeds' extensive network of travel trade buyers in the Pacific markets and highlight the island's attractions for all travellers to help drive recovery.


Palma, Spain, 3rd June 2021 &nbsp;– Hotelbeds, the world’s leading bedbank, has today announced a new collaboration with Samoa Tourism Authority to drive in-bound tourism to the Pacific island in particular from Australia and New Zealand, while long-haul, international travel restrictions remain in place. &nbsp;

The campaign will focus on introducing Samoa as a tourist destination to travel trade buyers in Australia and New Zealand, highlighting the Pacific island's greatest attractions, including its beautiful landscapes, genuine hospitality and breath-taking adventure travel options. In addition, its proximity to Australia and New Zealand is another major selling point especially in the current context of long-haul travel restrictions.

The campaign, which runs from the end of May to September, will appear in Hotelbeds’ two main distribution channels, Bedsonline, targeting retail travel agencies, and Hotelbeds, focused on wholesale distribution.

As part of this deal, Hotelbeds’ Sourcing team in the region will contract more hotels in Samoa and negotiate exclusive rates to support the campaign which will then be accessible to the companies’ extensive network of buyers in Australia, New Zealand and beyond.

Gareth Matthews, Marketing, Communications &amp; CSR Director at Hotelbeds, commented: “We are very pleased to finally be able to launch this partnership with the Samoa Tourism Authority that was initiated in early 2020 but placed on hold due to COVID. We have remained in constant contact with Samoa throughout the pandemic and we are happy that conditions are now right to be able to help them fuel their recovery efforts.

“This campaign will also enable us to capture the pent-up demand from our Australian and New Zealand travel trade customers, while helping to educate them on this beautiful destination. This partnership will also ensure that we extend our portfolio of hotel properties, contracted under special conditions in the country and make them available to more than 60,000 travel trade buyers worldwide, while also securing exclusive promotional rates for our Australia and NZ clients. &nbsp;&nbsp;

Fa’amatuainu Lenata’i Suifua, Chief Executive Officer for Samoa Tourism Authority, added: “Samoa Tourism Authority is delighted to enter into a partnership with Hotelbeds. This has been a strategic decision for us as we believe there will be a huge demand for international travel when borders are eased. We feel that Hotelbeds is able to help us achieve a wide reach and educate those that are considering a trip to our beautiful country. We look forward to a long and prosperous relationship with them!”
