Reinforcing its position as the leading global distribution system (GDS) provider in the Middle East, Travelport, operator of the Galileo booking platform, is set for a major presence at Arabian Travel Market 2009.

Taking place 5-8 May, Arabian Travel Market is the region's leading annual travel and tourism exhibition for industry professionals, and Travelport intends to make a splash with a sneak preview of its latest offering for travel agencies at the Galileo by Travelport stand.

Marking its ATM debut since it began direct operations in the Middle East, Travelport GDS will be highlighting some of the advanced capabilities of its flagship Galileo platform at this year's event, including live demonstrations of upcoming products designed to help agents compete more effectively.

The leading GDS provider will also be leveraging ATM to reveal details of an exclusive region-wide customer win that will cement the company's footprint across the region and further build on the momentum it has gained within the travel trade with its new training and support network.

"Arabian Travel Market is the ideal platform for Travelport to reach out to the travel trade and highlight some of the key successes we've enjoyed since launching our direct operations in the region. It will also be the perfect opportunity to demonstrate our industry leadership by showcasing some of our most highly-anticipated products ever."
