One-stop shop for travel needs inks partnership with Cebu travel agencies

One-stop shop for travel needs inks partnership with Cebu travel agencies


There are times when planning a trip can become daunting. Booking flights, applying for visas and other requirements, even looking for a place to stay, can be sources of irritation. A weary traveler will need help in planning the perfect getaway. 88DB.com, the one-stop shop for everything travel- related, recently introduced its Travel Portal. The numerous sections in the site can help a traveler plan trips easily. But should they need more help in arranging trips, they can ask for the services of a travel agency.

88DB recently partnered with Cebu Travel and Tours Association in order to provide more services and products for travelers. CTTA is a non- profit organization made up of 36 DOT-accredited travel agencies in Cebu and other places in Visayas. The members aim to uphold the quality services offered by travel agencies in order to promote tourism in Cebu. Tourists can choose from the travel agencies in Cebu that can help them plan trips in the Queen City of the South or elsewhere.

“88DB is adamant in promoting Philippine tourism. This partnership with Cebu Travel and Tours Association is in line with our aim to make information, products, and services more accessible for travelers.” Racquel Cagurangan, general manager of 88DB, says.

Aside from finding products and services, tourists can also build communities online. With the Forum and Q & A sections of the site, they can meet fellow travelers and share stories of their latest discoveries and adventure.

Due to 88DB’s presence in other countries, CTTA affiliates can also be viewed in 88DB China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, India, Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand, thereby promoting local products to a global audience and encouraging visits to the Philippines.

Cagurangan adds, “With this partnership aimed towards the promotion of tourism and travel, it wouldn’t be surprising if travelers from around the globe, as well as in our country, flock to our shores in the upcoming months.”

88DB.com is the Philippines’ first rich media classified ad portal created to provide large companies, small-and-medium enterprises, organizations and freelancers a venue to promote their products or services online.

Founded in 1989, it is composed of members engaged in both outbound and inbound tourism operations.
