Royal Caribbean International Names Holiday Systems International as the 2009 West Region Travel Partner of the Year


LAS VEGAS, NV--(Marketwire - February 5, 2010) - Once again Holiday Systems International (HSI) has been recognized and honored for its exceptional travel services. Royal Caribbean International, a major cruise line with more than 280 destinations worldwide, recently announced HSI as the 2009 West Region Travel Partner of the year!

The West Region, from which HSI was selected, is composed of the following 14 states: California, Colorado, Oregon, Washington, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, Idaho, Montana, Alaska, Utah, Wyoming and Hawaii.

The competition is intense, as only one recipient is chosen through very specific and measurable criteria. Royal Caribbean determined that Holiday Systems International surpassed all other travel service providers located in each of the above states in every criterion.

Holiday Systems International continues to increase its cruise bookings by significant percentages year after year. This would be noteworthy in a thriving economy, but to have such an achievement in our currently challenged economy is an amazing business accomplishment. Additionally, HSI employees utilize the latest technology when booking their customers' travel. In fact, approximately 85% of cruise travel booked through HSI is fulfilled using automated systems. The use of this technology reduces the "bottom-line" cost for customers, spurring even more business for HSI and all of the cruise companies they offer services through, including Royal Caribbean.

HSI's President and CEO, Craig Morganson, and his dedicated staff have once again demonstrated that HSI provides excellent and cost-efficient travel services in the midst of a challenging economy. With the selection of HSI as its 2009 West Region Travel Partner, Royal Caribbean International has acknowledged the same.
