GeniusTravel Transforms the Future of Holiday Bookings With New App Launch

AMSTERDAM, December 2, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --

Today sees the global launch of the new GeniusTravel app and the desktop 2.0 version, the travel secret weapon for adventurous consumers who want to broaden their holiday horizons. Unlike other travel search tool apps, which lead on destination or airline / hotel partner, GeniusTravel takes a customer-centric approach, focusing on budget first, and allowing you to book holidays the way you always wanted to.

Wherever you are in the world, with just two clicks, GeniusTravel generates instant search results from the latest fares of 500,000 hotel rooms, 24,000 hire car locations and 1,000 airlines worldwide.

The revolutionary new Geo-Locator feature even allows travelers to search nearby booking options from the beach or bar, via smartphone, to book a hotel or the next destination on their trip.

The app taps into a global travel trend towards budget and inspiration, rather than revisiting the 'tried and tested' holiday destinations, year after year.  Recent research has shown that, among Millennials, price is by far the most important factor when booking a holiday (chosen by 90% of respondents).  An increasing amount of travelers - of all ages - are also hunting for rare and authentic experience when booking holidays, rather than traditional holiday favorites.

The new travel app, available on iOS and Android, is the latest release from GeniusTravel, the Amsterdam-based start-up that has caused a stir in the holiday booking market in 2014 with the launch, earlier this year with a desktop version.  

Concluding:

• Mobile app for worldwide flight, hotel and car hire booking
• The first travel booking app focusing on price first
• Geo-locate function to find hotels, flights and car hire in your area, instantly
• Search over 1,000 airlines and 500,000 hotel rooms
• Partners: Skyscanner, Booking.com, RentalCars
