Online travel agency Rahlat.com is growing rapidly in popularity among travellers in the Middle East and Gulf regions as the company has reported over 6,000 downloads of its recently released mobile applications (both iOS and Android).

The applications, which target phone and tablet device users, aim at serving Arab travellers everywhere by comparing hotel and flight ticket prices through a single outlet in Arabic and English languages.

Users originated from many Arab countries, including Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Egypt.

Looking ahead, Rahlat.com expects more than 200,000 application downloads before the end of the current year.

Elie Messo, Rahlat CEO, mentioned that the company's mobile applications are user friendly and easy to navigate as they only require entering the simplest of details, such as dates, number of adults and children, as well as destination. Search takes place with a single click for the application to list a wide range of hotel and flight choices in Arabic language at the best prices.

Catering majorly to the Arab travellers, the company also provides a chat support service on its website, which will soon be rolled out to its mobile apps as well. - TradeArabia News Service
