Pankaj Nagpal, Managing Director, Travstarz Global Group believes that the new system will offer innovative tools to help agents in running their businesses more efficiently and economically.

“The reservation system will offer worldwide inventory of flights, hotels, tours, transfers, visa services, insurance and forex on a single platform. We are expecting to launch it by the end of July 2018 and our ultimate focus is to move most of our business online, including our DMC services,” says Nagpal.

Riding on a phenomenal run of success in the last two years, Nagpal says that Travstarz is growing at a rapid pace. “We have 100 per cent year-on-year growth over the last two years. We now have our DMC operations in Mauritius, the Maldives, Seychelles, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, Azerbaijan, Egypt, Dubai, Ras-Al-Khaimah, Bahrain, Sharjah, USA and Canada,” he adds.

Expressing joy over the company’s expansion in Mumbai, Nagpal says, “We already had our sales team in Mumbai but our new office here will now look after the entire West India region catering to Gujarat, Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh. The team will be led by Hema Manghnani, Executive Director of the company who is based in Mumbai.”

Nagpal also briefs about Travstarz’s operations in Egypt, saying, “We have been making strategic investments in existing DMCs overseas and Egypt is the latest addition in our DMC operations. With tie-ups with major hotels in Egypt, we are offering a wide range of readymade itineraries.”

Planning to conduct city-wise networking events with a focus on Tier-II and Tier-III cities, Nagpal speaks about Travstarz’s campaigning plans to enhance its reach. “We recently conducted a three-city roadshow with Seychelles Tourism in May at Ludhiana, Indore and Baroda; our calendar is packed with events throughout the year. We shall also be conducting webinars regularly to enhance destination knowledge among the travel trade for our preferred destinations,” Nagpal says. “We are now the Joint Promotion Partners with Canada, Bahrain Ras Al Khaimah. We will be doing four roadshows with Bahrain and atleast two shows with Canada. We will be working with Centara Hotels for these events,” he reveals. Nagpal feels that such events are the best way to promote a destination and its products as it gives them direct access to contact their partners and build mutual trust.

Expressing his view about the growth of outbound tourism in India, Nagpal explains, “India is one of the fastest growing tourism markets in the world and with higher disposable incomes in hands, we expect the industry to grow at a gradual pace. We have a very young economy with over 65 per cent of the population below 35 years of age. In this segment, travellers are keen on visiting more places and exploring the world. With this trend, we can expect a double-digit growth ahead as well.”
