Kuoni delays new web launch

Kuoni has put back the launch of its multi-destination web platform until the new year to enable the operator to test the online product.
Senior e-business manager Matt Rooke said a slight delay in finalising its long haul programmes was responsible. It will now launch its US dynamic packaging technology on January 9 with its Australia product going live a week later.
"We had wanted it to be operational for the start of the peak booking period but the product is still being set up and it hasn’t given us time to test the technology," said Rooke. "The programmes will go on sale offline early next week and online within the first two weeks of January."
The technology will enable customers to book complex, round-the-world itineraries.

Surprised to see Kuoni has still not launched this new booking engine. I was looking forward to seeing how it functions and compares to others offerings.

Kuoni have finally released their dynamic packaging solution and it really lives up to all expectations. I will definitely be using the system to book a round the world trip when Australia and New Zealand have been added!
