Telewest Travel removes distance restrictions on Endeavour
Broadband
- More travel agents to benefit from affordable and always-on
broadband connectivity
September 13 2004. Telewest Travel has announced that it has
removed all distance restrictions on its 512kbps ADSL service,
allowing its customers access to always-on broadband connectivity
whatever their location. Technical restrictions had previously
limited those too far away from the ADSL enabled exchange.
Travel agents using Telewest Travel’s unique online service,
Endeavour, are now able to reap the full benefits that using the
service over broadband can bring, from faster downloading of hotel
and resort information to “always on” connections offering a vastly
improved customer service compared to dial-up connections.
Keith Webber, Head of Travel at Telewest Business, said: “90 per
cent of all new connections are now broadband, but a number of
customers have been restricted in their use of this by their
physical location. By removing these restrictions any travel agent
can now benefit.”
Telewest Endeavour is a unique service for travel professionals,
providing easy, flexible access to critical information such as
holiday availability search and booking, IP Viewdata with multiple
sessions, internet access, email, GDS, up-to-the minute weather
reports, currency updates and links to tour operators.
