Triton Distribution Systems has completed and launched Phase I of the Red Dragon Express, a web portal into the Chinese travel market.

"Opening up China to our agency clients has been one of the cornerstones of our global distribution strategy," said Gregory Lykiardopoulos, chairman and CEO for Triton. "But we've taken that notion one step further by building tools like the Red Dragon Express so that our agency clients are able to generate revenue and grow their business from day one."

Red Dragon Express was built to provide Triton's agency clients with a web site where they can educate themselves and their customers about the travel opportunities into and throughout China. The site offers unique content and extensive opportunities for hotels, airlines, tour operators and cruise lines to advertise their services. Agents have exclusive access to Olympic tickets, more than 200 tours, more than 15 cruise packages, supplier promotions and transfer packages with access to a range of resources including country and cultural information, travel tools and resources, and top things to do and see, along with an online community of contributors sharing their knowledge and experiences of China. The site will also provide members an agent community, marketing tools, online training courses and tutorials.

Phase II of the Red Dragon Express project advances the site from an information resource to a transactional site for member agents. By the end of the second quarter this year, travel agents from around the world will be able to book trips on any domestic airline, cruise line, hotel, car rental company or tour operator within China. Agencies will also be able to grant access to their preferred customers which will help the agents serve more travelers with less effort.
