Dolphin Dynamics has signed a distribution agreement with Kuoni Connect, which provides accommodation and destination management services to the trade.

Users of the Dolphin Dynamics reservation platform will be able to search for and book Kuoni Connect’s 15,000 hotels globally as well as combine the accommodation with other travel elements on the platform such as flights and car-hire.

In July Kuoni Connect signed a similar agreement with Multicom enabling FindandBook users to access the same content.

In March, Kuoni announced it had agreed to buy GTA from Travelport for US$720 million. GTA has more than 35,000 properties in its portfolio in 130 countries as well as tours and attractions content.

A spokeswoman for Kuoni Connect said no decision had been made about integrating GTA content into Kuoni Connect.

The spokeswoman said the online brands remain competitors and each continues to make its own ‘commercial decisions’.
