Minneapolis Agency Hobbit Travel Wins Contest for 2 millionth Booking
MILWAUKEE, WI - Feb. 25, 2005 - Trisept Solutions celebrated a major milestone this month by processing the two millionth passenger booked VAX VacationAccess®.
The popular travel agent booking engine and vacation portal launched in 2000 and is used by 34,000 agents annually.
To mark the milestone, Trisept Solutions ran a promotion to track which lucky agent would hit the two million mark on VAX VacationAccess.
"Lou" Cindy Thesing, a travel consultant with Hobbit Travel in Minneapolis, Minn., successfully booked the two-millionth passenger when she used VAX VacationAccess to secure a last-minute trip to Nassau for a client.
"I really like VAX VacationAccess," said Thesing. "Our agency used to use a different GDS (global distribution system), but we switched to VAX VacationAccess a few years ago. Compared to the old system, VAX VacationAccess is so flexible - I especially like how easy it is to sort vacation options. I also like the great hotel information. You can easily access detailed descriptions, pictures and ratings."
Thesing, with Hobbit Travel since 1996, and a long-time VAX VacationAccess user, was awarded a brand new laptop computer, VAX-the-dog mascot and plaque for her office.
"This is a year of incredible milestones for Trisept Solutions, starting with our two millionth passenger on VAX VacationAccess and then gearing up to celebrate the fifth anniversary of the launch of VAX VacationAccess this summer," said John Ische, president of Trisept Solutions. "In just five years, the site has grown to become the travel professional's desktop of choice. We are very grateful for the support from the travel agency community and the twenty-plus vacation companies who sell their products using our online reservations technology."
VAX VacationAccess has evolved into the industry's premier travel agent portal, complete with the most powerful booking engine available, hundreds of timesaving reservation management tools and now exceptional sales, marketing and educational features.
