TAMPA, Fla. /eNewsChannels/ — Webjet Ltd., Australia’s largest and most successful online travel agency, is excited to announce the launch of its U.S. affiliate. Operating as a fully independent online travel agency, Webjet.com is committed to help U.S. customers search through millions of airfare and flight combinations to find the best deal for international itineraries.

According to Webjet.com CEO, Mathias Friess, a former senior executive of Virgin Blue Group and Lufthansa German Airlines, “We help U.S. travelers navigate through the jungle of international airfares to find the best deals.” He further claimed, “With our Australian roots and over 10 years experience in online travel, we know how to look for good deals for international trips. Australians are very savvy international travelers and we know that booking international travel can be very complicated, so our international experience will serve the U.S. market very well.”

One of the very unique elements of Webjet.com is its “StayThenPay” hotel feature which gives customers maximum flexibility when planning their accommodations, both domestically and internationally. For just a $10 booking fee, customers can simply select a room in one of the tens of thousands of hotels worldwide featured on www.webjet.com and pay the hotel at the end of the stay. If customers change their mind and need to cancel the hotel before arrival, Webjet cancels the reservation free of charge. Friess says, “In today’s world, people prefer not to commit and pay in full for their leisure hotel weeks in advance. What if you change your mind? What if you find a better deal? With StayThenPay, a small booking fee gives you the freedom to be that flexible.”
