Travel Distribution India 2007

17 - 18 October 2007
Taj Land's End
Mumbai, India

The annual meeting place for Indian online travel leaders. Get the knowledge and partnerships you need to succeed in the world's fastest growing online travel market.

The Indian travel industry is booming. Improving infrastructure, rocketing consumer spending power, and advances in technology are fuelling economic growth and opening up a huge new market. Travel and tourism in India is expected to generate US$28 billion by 2008, rising to a massive US$90.4 billion in 2014. So it's hardly surprising that doing business in India has become a key priority for travel companies around the world.

What's more, travel is proving to be the jewel in India 's e-commerce crown with travel related sales on the Web accounting for over 70% of all e-commerce transactions. With internet usage growing at 50% per year, and e-commerce projected to double by 2007, the opportunities are huge.

Already, the innovators and trail-blazers are making it pay. But will they be able to maintain their early-entry leadership positions? Or will the next wave of competition be able to profit even more handsomely by learning from the experiences – and mistakes – of those who went first?

Either way, If you are serious about selling travel in India , this event is a guaranteed short cut to creating the partnerships and strategies you need to establish your company as one of the winners.

How Hotel Guests Perceive the Fairness of Differential Room Pricing
When customers perceived hotel revenue management practices to be fair, they are more likely to be satisfied with the hotel and are more likely to return to that hotel in the future. In this survey of 815 people, we examined the effects of three factors on the respondents' assessment of the fairness of hotel rate policies. Those three factors were familiarity with the practice, provision of information about the practice, and the brand class of the hotel. Of those three, we found that familiarity with a pricing practice was far and away the most important factor affecting perceived fairness. The implication is that revenue managers should focus their efforts on increasing guests' familiarity with their pricing practices. (PDF Document)
