Auto Europe Upgrades Web Site

21 Jun 2001

Auto Europe has further enhanced their web site, http://www.autoeurope.com, to meet the needs of the growing number of travel agents using the internet for online reservations and research.

The latest enhancements include a personalized member account section that allows an agent to securely store their agency information including name, address, fax, telephone number, email address and IATA number so they do not need to repeatedly fill in their information with every reservation. After logging into the site, the agent can simply select their service, add their client's name and the form will automatically fill in the agency information. This feature is optional.

In addition to the personalized member section, Auto Europe has also refined their destination and driving informational pages. Agents can research all facets of travel to Europe, including driving information, local ordinances, currency and suggested attractions. Auto Europe's improved car search produces printable high quality detailed photos of European vehicle makes and models including equipment information, seating, and luggage capacity. The new pop up calendar is easier to navigate and determine a client's departure and return dates.

These enhancements compliment the site's already existing elements such as the Online Affiliate Program. This program offers agents the opportunity to create their own "Auto Europe Sub Site" and use the information on their own web site. Agents can select products and locations that are of interest to their clients and customize the site with their logo. The agency's IATA number is embedded in all reservation requests that are generated from the sub site allowing for commissions to be protected.

"Auto Europe has one of the most resourceful and agent-friendly web sites in the industry. Not only can our members build Auto Europe content on their individual web sites; agent commissions are 100% protected. While some suppliers use their web sites to divert clients from agents and encourage direct sales, Auto Europe once again demonstrates their on-going commitment to the travel agency community" states Ignacio Maza, Executive Vice President - Partner Relations, Virtuoso.

Travel agents also have their own password protected section that allows them to find their local Auto Europe Sales Representative, offer updates on the latest fam trips and incentives and provide details on current promotions. In addition, Auto Europe provides a weekly travel enewsletter with featuring their latest promotions. Currently, agents that subscribe to the newsletter will be entered to win a new London Cab SE.
