9 May 2000
Partners Celebrate Enhanced Relationship With Preferred Rates In Two Top Summer DestinationsHONOLULU - Cheap Tickets, Inc. , a leading discount travel seller, and The Hertz Corporation , the world's largest car rental company, are expanding their partnership to offer more discounted car rentals than ever before. To celebrate their enhanced partnership, Cheap Tickets and Hertz are offering special low rates to leisure travelers in California and Hawaii -- just in time for early summer travel. Now through July 14, travelers can book a Hertz rental throughout California for as low as $28.99 per day or $149.39 per week when they purchase their air travel from http://www.cheaptickets.com or through Cheap Tickets' toll-free number 1-800-OKCHEAP. Vacationers throughout Hawaii can save as well with Hertz rentals as low as $31.33 per day or $156.62 per week. The enhanced partnership further positions Cheap Tickets as one of the most comprehensive providers of discounted travel products on and off the Web. "We are pleased to announce our expanded relationship with Hertz," said Jason Horstman, vice president, business development at Cheap Tickets. "Adding more Hertz rentals to our product selection will help us further our goal of giving value-conscious travelers the largest and broadest selection of travel products available anywhere." Under the terms of the expanded agreement, Cheap Tickets will enable its customers to choose from thousands of Hertz car rental offerings through Cheap Tickets' proprietary car rental-booking system. This new system will streamline the travel-booking process by enabling consumers to book their ground transportation when they book their air travel. The new system has already been implemented in Cheap Tickets' call centers and is set to launch online by the end of the second quarter this year. All rates mentioned are for subcompact-size car rentals and are subject to availability. Additional discounted car rental rates are available from Cheap Tickets on most Hertz car classes, including compact, intermediate and full- size vehicles.
