Outtask and Omega World Travel Announce Distribution
Partnership for Cliqbook (June 10, 2002)
Cliqbook Provides Corporations Web Fares and Other Efficiencies in
Turbulent Travel Market
ALEXANDRIA, VA and FAIRFAX,
VA (June 10, 2002) – Outtask, Inc., one of the nation’s
leading providers of Travel and Expense Management solutions, and Omega
World Travel, a leading travel management company, today announce a partnership
to offer Cliqbook to Omega World Travel’s corporate clients. Recognized
as a leading provider of online travel management systems, Outtask’s
Cliqbook will enable Omega World Travel to provide its clients with one
resource for accessing Web fares, existing corporate discount programs
and other GDS fares for air, hotel and car. Cliqbook also interfaces with
Omega’s reporting systems, thus providing corporations with complete
management of their travel spend.
Cliqbook allows corporations to significantly reduce costs by improving
efficiency in the travel arranging process, providing access to the right
fares, allowing companies to enforce corporate travel policy, and making
online booking quick and simple. “Omega is committed to advising
customers of the lowest prices. Fare comparisons are essential to making
good buying decisions, and the absence of Web fares on the typical GDS
has created a void which Cliqbook fills,” said Gloria Bohan, president
and owner of Omega World Travel. “The commitment from Omega is a
clear win for Outtask, Omega, and their customers in insuring that business
travelers get equal access to all their travel options,” said Tom
DePasquale, president and CEO of Outtask. “We are pleased to be
able to address the increased need for change in the new travel economy.”
