A leading Hungarian travel agency network has migrated to Galileo.

It follows a long-term agreement by OTP Travel to move to the Travelport GDS which was signed at the end of last year.

The migration was completed for all 13 OTP offices in the country this month.

OTP, which is a member of international travel agency chain Lufthansa City Centre, is adopting a number of Travelport solutions including Travelport Smartpoint App and Travelport Rapid Reprice.

OTP chief executive Judit Molnár said: “We feel that the advanced technology that we have now moved to will further increase the revenues that we’ve been growing over the past few years.

“Furthermore, the strength of the Travelport team in Budapest, with their proficiency and positive attitude was another deciding factor in our decision to move to Travelport.”

The technology company’s Hungary country manager Balázs Bíró said: “We’ve enjoyed a number of successes winning new business this year and this is the latest demonstration of a customer selecting us over the competition because we’ve been able to demonstrate that we can respond to local needs and deliver leading products.”
