Oriens Travel and Hotel
Management a company
that seeks out
mid/lower-end hotel
properties in developing
countries and
re-organizes them under
the Hotel PURE brand, is
pleased to announce the
service contract
consummated with the
Cámara de Turísmo
Guanacasteca (Catugua) -
Tourism Chamber of
Guanacaste - to service
all incoming visitors
into the Liberia
International Airport of
their travel needs.
Over 200,000 visitors
arrive into the Liberia
International airport
yearly from the United
States and Europe to
visit various vacation
spots in the Northern
and Western regions of
Costa Rica which consist
of some of the best gems
of the country.
Roughly 50% of these
visitors arrive into the
country with no prior
accommodation
arrangements.
As a result, the
official Guanacaste
Tourism Chamber
information booth
located at the luggage
pick-up area in the
arrival hall of the
airport is always
flooded with visitors
requesting local Costa
Rica hotel information
upon their arrival.
Traditionally in the
past, the
representatives would
give out pamphlets of
hotels to these
visitors. The visitors
would then make their
way to the hotels via
local taxis.
Under the service
contract, Oriens will
install its FROL booking
engine into the
information booth at the
airport, allowing
representatives at the
booth to instantly
execute real-time
bookings into hotels
requested by these
visitors.
Both the Tourism Chamber
of Guanacaste and Oriens
believe this initiation
will greatly assist the
visitors arriving into
the airport with all
their hotel
accommodation and
transfer needs.
Under the contract,
Oriens will receive a
booking fee for every
successful booking made
through the FROL booking
engine at the booth.
Oriens projects sales
revenue in excess of
us$3,000,000 yearly to
be processed from the
booth.
