Los Angeles, CA Premier|Groople Named Official Group Travel Hotel Booking Agency for Big West Conference
Denver, CO (PRWEB) November 13, 2007
Groople, the leading travel website for group travel planning and booking, becomes Big West?s official online group hotel reservation agency as part of a three-year agreement. The partnership will provide several advantages for Big West including the ability for teams, officials and fans to book discounted rates on hotels, airfare and cars for all tournaments and games.
?This partnership has the potential to change the sports travel industry by leveraging the large volume of travelers to games with secure price-points not available to individual travelers,? said Mike Stacy, CEO of Groople. ?By providing Big West with more than the traditional travel services, and offering both online and offline agent support, we can meet the needs of the organization.?
The agreement includes a designated travel website for Big West on Groople?s newest social networking feature, GroopVine; allowing access to room blocks for tournaments, shootouts and championships as well as fan and official travel links. Groople?s purchasing power and long standing relationships with preferred hotel partners give Big West?s constituents substantial group travel discounts of more than 20 percent.
?Groople has created a ?hands-free? way to offer hotel booking services to Big West teams, fans and officials for sports, business and leisure travel,? said Rob Halvaks, Senior Associate Commissioner of the Big West. ?Teams can realize significant savings in both time and money through this new partnership. Big West benefits from Groople?s ability to negotiate better group travel discount rates with its multi-conference relationships.? This partnership, in addition to handling hotel room bookings for all Big West championship events, looks to build and strengthen the relationship with alumni, students and each campus community.
