'XRV' ~ love these two sections :

Partnerships to increase the Company’s visibility and contain costs

CINT creates relationships with travel suppliers through a wide range of promotional strategies designed to increase its visibility while reducing marketing and customer service costs.

For example, the Company has finalized a partnership agreement with Mexicana Airlines for ticketing IntelliFares customers in the West Coast markets that Mexicana Airlines serves. In addition, the Company has signed a 60 day exclusivity agreement with ResortCom International, a leading resort and timeshare operator, in order to complete an agreement to distribute its IntelliFares products. CINT has also partnered with Flying Dutchmen Travel to distribute IntelliFares, and with AIG Travel Guard to provide travel insurance at no additional cost for the customer’s first round-trip IntelliFares flight. Finally, the Company has engaged UBS to manage customer deposits to ensure resources are available to honor service delivery.



AND THIS ONE



$871 billion market opportunity

US personal travel & tourism expenditures are estimated at $870.6 billion or 9.0% of total personal consumption expenditures in 2007. By 2017, US personal travel & tourism expenditures are expected to reach $1,439.7 billion and represent 9.2% of total personal consumption expenditures.

Rising oil prices, personal income and travel prices make locking in today’s air fare for future travel an attractive alternative. According to Accenture’s Transportation & Travel Service practice, travel companies must devise innovative solutions and focus on cost effectiveness to profit from travel industry growth. Accenture also predicts travelers will increasingly lose interest in commodity products and instead demand solutions specifically designed around their needs. Travel service providers must also blend the right mix of distribution channels – such as the Web, agents or catalogs – to provide complete solutions1.
