Ryanair Launches Open Day For Hotels

Ryanair, Europe’s favourite airline, today (18 Jan) announced an open day for hotel owners and operators, offering them the chance to ‘Go Direct’ and to list their rates & availability on the Ryanair Rooms website, via ‘Ryanair Rooms Direct’, Ryanair’s new extranet supply channel.

As the latest initiative under Ryanair’s “Always Getting Better” programme, Ryanair Rooms Direct gives hotels access to 130m customers per annum on Europe’s No.1 travel website attracting 50m visitors per month and offers hotels the opportunity to avoid the high commission paid to Booking.com. Ryanair won’t bid on your brand name or your keywords, and to drive demand, we’ll pass on commissions to customers as Travel Credit to spend as a reward on Ryanair flights.

Taking place in London on 19 February at the De Vere Grand Connaught Rooms, the open day will give independent and chain hotel operators a chance to sign up their property to this revolutionary new programme.

Ryanair’s Director of Ancillary Revenue Greg O’Gorman said:

“We are pleased to announce the first in a series of ‘Ryanair Rooms Direct’ Open Days in cities across Europe, the first of which will be held in London in February, to give even more hotels and guesthouses the chance to sign up with Ryanair Rooms Direct. Hotels can list their inventory for the lowest commission available in the market, and find out how they can promote their properties directly on Ryanair.com to 130m annual customers in 33 countries across Europe.  Ryanair.com is well on the way to becoming the ‘Amazon of Travel’, with over 600m visitors per year, so this is a great opportunity for accommodation providers to get into bed with us, and offer their inventory to more people than ever before.”
