On-line conference on February 28th

On February 28th on-line conference devoted to the expectations of regional agencies from Moscow tour operating companies was held on forum on www.tourdom.ru. Main expectations of regional travel agencies in Russia refer to the development of IT technologies – introduction of on-line reservation systems and possibility of payment by account. Besides they hope for fair business excluding the possibility of direct contact of an operator with an agency client providing him with discounts. Regional market players pointed out that regional agencies have to initiate the introduction of IT innovations. Furthermore, Olga Troilova, Director of Eltour travel company, enumerated the advantages of working with Moscow tour operators: ‘Moscow companies offer more diversified assortment, they confirm our requests quicker than local tour operating companies, besides the commission is higher with the same prices for tours’. However, some regions outlined the aggressive behavior of some operators, who enter new markets competing not only with local tour operators but even with their potential partners – agencies offering discounts directly to clients.
