Are you seriously still waiting for bookings from OTAs in 2021?
The covid era is leading to the collapse of the tourism industry giants, which undoubtedly base their foundations on vacation rentals and hotels. In fact, since the latter ones are suffering from a serious earthquake, the natural consequence is the collapse of everything that is built on them. Therefore, vacation rentals and hotels just need a rebirth, finally free from the weight of OTAs. Leaning on those who mainly intend to bring grist to their mill, was not exactly a wise choice. Now the time has come to take your freedom and choose your course of action.
Vacation rentals need to build their own online presence, independently from any other company, OTA, or organization.
It is useless, as well as harmful, to despair and remain inert now, waiting for “start working” again with OTAs or rather getting plucked by them. “Homo faber fortunae suae”, the Ancient Romans used to say. Why not borrow this maxim as a motto for 2021 and the years to come?
The time is ripe to guarantee online security, high technology, immediate and certified payments, advanced features. Several companies have been operating in this direction for years, and are able to offer all these advanced services, even better than OTAs in several cases. Among the most desired and extremely advantageous services, there are very low commissions, which don’t weigh, neither on the payment by the guests, nor on the hosts turnover. Starting this new year collaborating with these companies would represent a great turning point for vacation rentals and hotels, as well as for travellers, who are eager to start travelling again, benefiting from excellent services, spending the right amount.
You will find these companies among the exhibitors and partners of Tourism Renaissance, a unique international event dedicated to the rebirth of tourism, with conference and exhibition, which will be held online from 23rd to 26th of March 2021.
