Distribution & online travel

Founded Reisetorget.no in 1999 — one of Scandinavia's first online travel agencies, later acquired by the Apollo-Kuoni Group. Decades of collaboration with OTAs, bedbanks, metasearch and travel media. We know how to make a product visible and bookable where the sales actually happen.
