Jetset & Affordable Car Hire form New Business Partnership

Affordable Car Hire and Jetset have signed a partnership agreement which means the car-rental company provides product for the operator’s new online Booking Basket facility.

The agreement allows agents using the Jetset JETS booking system, or booking via jetsetflights.com to access the whole range of Affordable Car Hire’s product simply and easily at the touch of a button.

John Bond, chairman of Jetset, said: “We already offer hotels and other components on jetsetflights.com. The addition of car hire was the next step and enhances our proposition as a one-stop shop. Agents can now book all components in one PNR and on one confirmation invoice, with the additional benefit that it is covered under our ATOL.”

“We chose Affordable Car Hire for a number of reasons. It is very competitive in the USA, which is one of our key markets, and it has a reputation for being reliable and providing value for money. Affordable Car Hire’s XML link means it is easy for the company to feed us with content so agents can make bookings and search availability.”

Angela Day, managing director of Affordable Car Hire, said: “Travel agents are already well aware of Affordable Car Hire’s high-quality, trade-friendly service. Now they are able to book car rental with us as part of a truly tailor-made package with Jetset Flights
