Point-and-click Format to Give Travel Agents Unparalleled Flexibility
SAUSALITO, CA--(BUSINESS WIRE)—Jan. 17, 2007--Triton Distribution Systems, Inc. (OTCBB: TTDS), a next generation web-based travel distribution service provider, announced today the launch of ReservationExpert™. Now for the first time since the invention of reservation systems, travel agents have a powerful reservation system that employs a graphical user interface (GUI) to grant direct inventory access without the barriers of legacy systems.

ReservationExpert is a long awaited milestone in the travel industry. Travel agents can now use a universal interface to access a multitude of airlines, hotels, cruises, tours, GDS’ and other inventory databases through one single interface without the need for typing any commands. This point-and-click system will perform all transactions in the background and will offer a multitude of choices including the ability to book, calculate, issue tickets, create PNRs, and confirm reservations.

- Airlines: 580 air carriers through Triton’s direct connection to the airlines or through its GDS partners and consolidators
- Cars: Real-time access to all major car rental companies
- Hotels: Access to over 4,500 hotels worldwide without switching systems or creating a new PNR
