NEW YORK, July 15, 2004 (PRIMEZONE) -- GTREX, Inc. (OTCBB:GRXI) announced today that it has initiated a joint program to digitally connect the new Travel Wizard, LLC booking site with the reservation systems of major suppliers to Travelwizard.com.
Kailash Khanna, CEO of GTREX, Inc. commented, "Connecting the booking site directly to suppliers provides users of the system unencumbered visibility to the availability of travel packages, while keeping control of the brand, availability and price with the supplier." He added, "This will be achieved by establishing a direct integrated connection between the supplier's reservations system and the GTREX system that powers the Travel Wizard booking site."
Potential travelers visiting the www.Travelwizard.com website will be able to check the availability and price of a package and book that package directly online. The GTREX system will enable Travel Wizard's agents to book their clients' entire vacation in a single session, increasing their productivity and client satisfaction simultaneously.
Travel Wizard CEO and founder Bob McMillen stated, "Travelwizard.com has received enthusiastic response and support from its major suppliers that include, among others, GoGo Vacations & Pleasant Holidays. This will expedite the bookings and speed up the operations considerably. It will also give Travelwizard.com clients the largest selection of vacations, properties, cruises, car rentals and tours on the web. Naturally, this should boost revenues of our suppliers, TravelWizard.com and GTREX, Inc."
