Travelodium Travel Club FAQ
Travelodium will be launching its new Travel Club in the near future. The club will offer discounts to members for hotel/tour packages throughout the world. Membership will enable you to share in the benefits of discounts from hundreds of different tours and hotels in different locations throughout the world. At present we have over 30,000 hotels registered with Travelodium.
We will focus on areas that are serviced by low cost airlines, so as a member you will be able to buy a cheap flight and have accommodation and tours also available at a cheap price. Can you imagine being in London in the middle of winter and getting a 20 GBP flight with Ryanair to Jerez and through Travelodium you've been able to book your Spanish cooking course. The next day you have a winery tour booked. And you have paid a discount price for both becasue they are Travelodium Travel Club Tour Providers.
Travelodium Travel Club will open the possibilities for so many different holidays. You will be able to look through our database and have access to details of thousands of hotels and tours throughout the world. It's so much more than what your travel agent can offer.
For more details see Travelodium Travel Club and if you have a tour or hotel business and are interested in adding your site - see Adding your hotel to Travelodium.
What is Travelodium Travel Club offering?
When you go into a travel agency and ask about a certain destination, what happens? You get given a brochure and unless you are ready to book something, you get asked to go away and come back once you're ready to spend some money. What would happen if you asked about fishing charters in South Africa - a blank look or you'll need to book that on the internet. Well that's what we're here for. We are compiling a list of hotels, bed and breakfast accommodations and many different tours that will be available to members of the travel club in one location. The types of holidays that we will offer are things like cooking, fishing, surfing, golf, art retreats, yoga etc the types of holidays where you are active, not just sitting around a pool, although there's nothing wrong with doing that either.
How will it work?
We are presently contacting many travel companies and hotels throughout the world with the purpose of asking them to participate and provide discounts to our travel club members. Some of these discounts could be for the off season, others throughout the whole year.
Why are the hotels offering the discounts?
Travelodium does not charge any commissions to hotel or travel company owners so they are making a saving by not paying those commissions. Instead of charging commissions Travelodium wants to forward the savings to our travel club members. So instead of an agent getting a commission you get a discount making your trip cheaper.
Do I have to book the tour and pay through Travelodium Travel Club?
No, all bookings will be taken and paid to the owners of the travel company/hotel on their website. All you will need to do is quote your club member number to get the discounts. Each of Travelodium's tour pages will provide links through to the travel company/hotel website.
What progress have you made?
Well, we have a listing of 30,000 hotels throughout the world and we are presently compiling a list of travel companies that would like to participate in the club. We will keep you informed of progress on our monthly newsletter.
