Booking New Zealand, on-line, real-time
New Zealand tourism has a new online presence that points to the way the sector will be marketed in the near future.
Ubooktrip.com is a real-time booking platform for free independent travellers (FITs), both domestic and those coming to New Zealand from offshore.
Bookings can be made at any of the 119 hotels, motels and apartments throughout New Zealand listed on the site.
Site owner Barry Doody of Barry Tours Ltd says the real-time booking feature makes the site unique among those marketing New Zealand destinations.
“We also expect the fact that our prices are the lowest obtainable on the internet will see the site grow in popularity very quickly.â€Â
The site provides visitors with video previews of destinations, with nearly 50 brief streaming video presentations, presenting the headline tourist activities in each of the 12 main regions across the country.
While the site is primarily aimed at the FIT market, Mr Doody said tour groups are a secondary target for the site, “ … whether they be MICE (meeting, incentive, conventions and exhibitions)-related or special interest.â€Â
