Travel has become an inseparable part of life, be it for business, for studies or for pleasure.
Today, Travel Industry is one of the busiest sectors with a wide range of applications providing detailed services to millions of travelers. Today I was surprised to find out that a local travel agency, Al Ostora Travel, has made the shift to online with support of Knet and credit card payments. It is now possible to purchase a ticket and make hotel reservations directly from their website.
Finally… It seems that technological evolution has reached, what I still consider, one of Kuwait’s most backward thinking sectors. If they already deal with their suppliers through electronic/online means, why can’t they do that with customers as well?!
Al Ostora Travel attempt to allow customer to book/purchase online is a very bold move, one that deserves a trial on my part during my next travel arrangements. Apparently, through as little as four clicks I can access over 755 airlines and choose from 50,000 hotels around the world.
Well, after a little research, I have discovered that Al Ostora Travel was established in 2006, which leads me to believe it is the young blood in this company that prompted the technological advancement which should lead them to the forefront of the travel industry.
For those who wish to travel before I perform my trial of the site you can visit them on the following link: http://www.alostoratravel.com
