Despegar is the largest OTA in Latin America and this new agreement will strengthen Nustay’s position on this growing market.
Focused on the Latin American market, Despegar offers accommodations across 12,000 cities in more than 20 countries in the region. The agreement was signed in May 2019 and will be ongoing until further notice. Nustay expects the integration to go live ultimo June 2019.
CEO Mathias Lundoe Nielsen comments:
“It is very pleasing to announce this new agreement with Despegar. They will distribute us with all of their directly contracted hotels and accommodations in Latin America, which is a steadily growing and under-penetrated market which we have been looking at for some time now. Once again, this deal underlines that Nustay is constantly striving to expand and improve its hotel portfolio and are able to enter agreements with leading companies globally. This new deal will of course be vital for our expansion in Latin America. The Online Travel Market in Latin America is expected by Euromonitor to reach over 49 billion US dollars in 2021 and we look very much forward to cut a piece from this lucrative cake.”
