The General Manager of OneTime.com, the popular online travel comparison site, will speak at EyeforTravel's Travel Distribution Summit in Chicago, IL, on the subject of meta-search in the online travel space.
Manhattan Beach, CA (PRWEB) September 28, 2006 -- Dena Yahya, General Manager of OneTime.com, will present at the EyeforTravel Travel Distribution Summit North America on Thursday, Oct. 5, at 3:30pm CDT. Yahya will speak and answer questions about meta-search in the online travel space at the Chicago conference.
Yahya will discuss trends in the online travel industry, how meta-search sites like OneTime have impacted and evolved the online travel booking process, and how meta-search engines co-exist with and benefit direct online travel suppliers.
Yahya will also tackle the question of user loyalty and meta-search engines: Can meta-search engines cultivate user loyalty? Is loyalty exclusive to brand name hotels and hotel chains, airline carriers and rental car companies? Or can loyalty exist with both meta-search travel sites and direct travel providers?
OneTime.com is a meta-search engine for online shopping comparison. In its travel section, OneTime partners with more than 30 well-known travel deal providers--including direct merchants, online travel agents and other online deal aggregators--to offer travelers a compelling online comparison experience when researching and booking travel, including hotels, flights, car rentals and cruises.
"Online travel comparison shoppers are savvy; they are always looking for the best price and most appealing itinerary. One week Travelocity may have it; the next week it may be better to book directly with United Airlines. OneTime is a meta-search engine that saves travelers time and money by quickly and easily allowing them to compare prices and itineraries from multiple deal providers at once," Yahya said. "OneTime has built a trustworthy, easy-to-use site that offers a first-rate user experience; this in turn drives loyalty for OneTime and the travel deal providers that OneTime is partnered with."
Dena Yahya will be on hand throughout the two day summit, held October 4 and 5, 2006, at the Holiday Inn Mart Plaza, Chicago, IL, to meet with delegates and discuss search engine marketing, meta-search, and other marketing issues as they relate to online travel shopping comparison.
