iam trying to find a booking agent that can make a reservation for majestic svites on sukhumwit, a bit lower than the 1500 that they request normally

Anyone got a hunch

Those 2 companies are the cheapest suppliers in Thailand and supply 80-90% of all travel sites including Res24 and all those other websites.

Another company you can try is planetholiday.com but I doubt that they can match any price from Diethelm or Asiantrails as those 2 companies undercut each other and the winner will always be the consumer.

Asiantrails, Diethlem, Pacific world etc do indeed supply most websites however they generally do not offer the net rates to the clients which they offer to companies like hotel travel network or planet holiday

[asinah]

Yes, they may not offer the same rates but if a website makes a 15-20% markup, you can be assured that the websites rates from other sites will be more expensive.

The rates of Pacific World, East West etc. are to expensive because their volume is much smaller per month compared to Diethelm and Asiantrails.

[Jimbo]

Well although Diethelm and Asiantrails do have low rates, I have for several hotels found that toureast is cheaper and insome cases pacific world as well. (dont forget that Pacific World has a large office as well in Bangkok however have relatively little experience with dot com clients.) They might not generate a lot of booking with certain hotels but do with others. They only need one foreign touroperator that will book through them a specific hotel for package holifays and they will obtain good rates.

By the way, just had a look at your website. You guys are an affiliate or referrer right? Or do you you book directly with the wholesalers?

We are allways looking for affiliates or referrers if you are interested?
