Following the recent news of the merger of getabed and roomsXML, the combined businesses will now operate under a single brand called ?Stuba?.
This move will see the amalgamation of both teams and operations to deliver wider benefits to all existing and new travel partners, together with the launch of a new website.
Stuba have developed next generation functionality, which has been based on agent feedback, and claim that the speed and ease of use is far superior to many others in the marketplace. Building on the legacy of roomsXML and getabed, the website aims to be the most innovative hotel booking portal for travel agents globally.
From July 16, roomsXML clients were redirected to the Stuba site, with getabed's agents following suit from September.
Since the announcement, Stuba has also been working on improved commercial deals with hotel partners around the world, working with new suppliers and hotel chains, giving wider access to inventory with competitive pricing.
Ruchir Bang, CEO of the company, said: ?We have worked very hard to ensure as smooth a transition as possible to Stuba and we are all extremely proud with the launch and the many benefits it will bring to all of our clients, both large and small. The merger really is gaining momentum every day, which means all of our trade partners will reap the benefits sooner rather than later. We?ve spoken to a number of our partners and everyone?s feedback has been extremely positive, which we are delighted with. All that remains for us to say is that it?s very much business as usual ? only better; putting our customers at the heart of everything we do?.
Stuba customers will have the same account management team and any queries regarding the transition should be directed to them.
