Throughout the past two decades, Travelport and Priceline have worked together to make the process of buying and selling travel easier for customers seeking great travel deals.
 
“Travelport has proven to be a valued partner over the last 20 years in helping Priceline customers find and book the best deals,” said Brigit Zimmerman, senior vice president of Flight, Hotel and Packages, Priceline.com.
 
Jason Clarke, Travelport’s senior vice president and managing director for Agency Commerce, added: “Travelport is proud to continue our long-standing relationship with Priceline. We are committed to supporting Priceline with our industry-leading search and pricing capabilities, as well as offering Priceline new technologies that offer faster connections, greater content and more relevant choices.” - TradeArabia News Service
