Amadeus to Provide Global Health, Safety Databases to Agents
Amadeus announced a partnership with HTH Worldwide to provide its global health and safety databases to Amadeus’ travel agency subscribers in North America.
The partnership –the first of its kind for the travel agent market- enables Amadeus to integrate HTH products into the Amadeus Selling Platform desktop, allowing agents in the U.S. and Canada to provide their clients access to global healthcare and safety information from their wireless mobile devices, laptops or desktops via subscriptions to HTH Mobile Health.
Amadeus travel agents are the first to be able to easily access HTH Mobile Health subscriptions for more than 180 countries directly through the Amadeus Selling Platform.
When booking HTH Worldwide content, agents are eligible for commissions of up to 25 percent. HTH Worldwide also offers agents the opportunity to add the subscription sales link to their own websites free of charge.
According to HTH, two out of three international travelers experience health problems on trips lasting up to 90 days. Now agents can offer peace of mind to their clients while creating a new revenue stream by distributing subscriptions online and in person.
Through HTH Worldwide subscriptions, travelers will be able to find out where to seek emergency or urgent care and how to fill prescriptions, look up profiles of carefully selected English-speaking doctors in a wide range of specialties, learn emergency numbers and vaccination requirements and translate medications and medical conditions.
Founded in 1997 as Highway To Health, Inc., HTH Worldwide has become a leading provider of international health insurance programs and an innovator in online healthcare information, medical assistance and insurance services around the globe. HTH offers a full range of individual and group specialty health insurance programs, all of which include HTH Mobile Health.
