ebookers.com Signs Pan-European Car Hire Deal With Alamo

         ebookers Moves to Centralise Product and Supplier Agreements

    LONDON, Feb. 15 ebookers.com,
Europe's No.1 online travel company, today announced that it
has signed an agreement with Alamo Rent A Car, one of the world's leading car
hire companies.  The agreement means that ebookers.com will be able to offer
competitive discount negotiated rates on Alamo's services for the US and
Canada.  Through its 109 locations in North America, Alamo serves more than
15 million travelers a year.  Alamo is part of the
ANC Rental Corporation , which in 1999 reported revenues of
approximately $3.5 billion.
    The agreement with Alamo is a pan-European one, giving evidence of
ebookers.com's ability to use its reach and scale of sales to negotiate
multinational deals with top-class product suppliers.  All of ebookers.com's
operating companies in 11 European countries will collaborate with Alamo and
gain support on a local basis.

    Dinesh Dhamija, CEO ebookers.com, comments:
"I see this deal with Alamo as significant for two reasons.  It demonstrates
ebookers.com's commitment to product diversification and product cross-selling
with the long-term aim of increasing overall margins.  It is also an excellent
example of how ebookers.com's unique scope and sales volumes in the European
online travel market, is enabling it to centrally negotiate competitive
pan-European deals with top-class suppliers.
    The attraction for suppliers is obvious; instead of negotiating on a
country-by-country basis, with individual online travel companies, by coming
to ebookers.com they can negotiate for 11 countries at once.
For ebookers.com, pan-European contracts meant that we are able to use the
sheer size of our booking figures to maximize our buying power and secure
competitive deals for our customers and ourselves."

    Nick Harwood, Regional Vice President; Alamo Rent A Car, comments:
    "Using our strengths with our extensive and unique North America products
and services along with our ability to handle ebookers account needs on a pan
European basis, puts us in a strong position to jointly grow the business."
