Travelocity Business Continues Expanding Hotel Offers Tailored to Business Travelers

       First Online Agency to Offer 'Corporate Rates' From Best Western

SOUTHLAKE, Texas, April 6 /PRNewswire/ — Travelocity Business(SM), a full
service corporate travel agency, today announced it is continuing to expand
its special hotel rates tailored to business travelers. The discounted hotel
rates offer more flexibility than those created for leisure travelers, giving
businesses the ability to save money without the restrictions and cancellation
penalties of leisure discounts. Travelocity Business is the first online
agency to offer discounted corporate rates from Best Western. The agreement
is part of Travelocity Business’ rapidly expanding program to offer business-
centric travel deals.

“Travelocity Business is already helping companies save significantly on
travel costs by dramatically lowering airfares and agency transaction fees,”
said Ellen Keszler, president of Travelocity Business. “Now, by leveraging
Travelocity’s relationships with leading hotels, we’re also securing special
rates and more flexible terms designed for business travelers, rather than
giving companies deals originally intended for leisure travelers.”

Travelocity Business’ special discounts include the lowest available
published rates, and are often similar to the discounts hoteliers provide
their largest corporate clients. Some hotels are offering package deals that
include such amenities as high-speed Internet, breakfast and other business-
oriented services. They provide flexibility in changing reservations without
special penalties or fees and allow travelers to continue obtaining points for
their stays, a benefit often lost when special leisure rates are used. The
hotel discounts complement the many other deals that Travelocity Business
continues to add with airlines, hotels and car rental companies.

“Today, more than ever, business travelers need much more flexibility in
their hotel and travel arrangements, which includes booking special corporate
rates through channels like Travelocity Business,” said Bob Gilbert, vice
president Worldwide Sales & Alliances at Best Western. “Savvy business
customers look for strong value propositions and leading edge technology to be
productive, such as the Internet. Best Western has taken the lead in offering
high-speed Internet access, and all of its 2300 hotels will offer this service
free of charge by September 1. The ability to book negotiated corporate
travel rates online is the new frontier in corporate travel and Best Western
is at the forefront with its partnership with Travelocity Business.”
