Tina Di Cicco, Viva Macau's Global Head of Marketing added, "Agoda will enhance our service with the sale of hotel rooms at discount rates on our website and, at the same time, promote Macau as the Las Vegas of the East. We are extremely pleased to partner with Agoda.com and look forward to reaping significant benefits as a result of the agreement."

Wilfred Fan, Agoda's Vice President, Business Development, contends that the distribution agreement with Viva Macau Airlines further solidifies Agoda's strong position in providing cost-effective partner solutions to the Low Cost Carrier segment of the airline industry in the Asia Pacific region.

"Agoda's agreement provides advantages for Viva Macau travelers who book directly, thus reinforcing our position as a leading travel distribution company," Fan said.
