Low-cost airline Norwegian has launched a global partnership with Expedia Affiliate Network (EAN) giving the carrier’s customers access to exclusive rates at a broader range of hotels whilst earning cost savings on all Norwegian flights.
In an exclusive agreement, Norwegian has added nearly 300,000 of EAN’s hotel accommodations and more than 100 million trusted reviews to its flight offering with EAN’s ‘Hotels.com for Partners’ product.
EAN’s ‘Hotels.com for Partners’ is a high-converting, constantly optimised retail platform. Available as both a white-label and co-branded solution, Norwegian opted to co-brand its hotel offering to benefit from the strength of the Hotels.com brand.
Along with access to an extensive selection of hotels, Norwegian customers will benefit from EAN’s discounted package rates when booking a flight and a hotel together on Norwegian’s new co-branded website. EAN will provide online accommodation suggestions in Norwegian’s flight booking confirmation emails. Norwegian’s customers will also have the choice and flexibility to pay for their hotel reservation at the time of booking or upon arrival.
Five million global members of Norwegian’s loyalty programme, Norwegian Reward, can also now earn CashPoints when booking hotels, which can be used as full or partial payment for Norwegian flights. Norwegian Reward members can choose from hundreds of thousands of hotels and earn 5% CashPoints on each booking.
Lars Sande, Senior Vice President of Sales at Norwegian, said: “We’re giving Norwegian customers a million more reasons to book hotels as our new agreement with Expedia Affiliate Network takes off. Customers now have easy access to a wide range of high quality hotels at competitive rates and Norwegian Reward members can also earn CashPoints that saves them money when flying with us in the future. By combining Norwegian flights with accommodation booked through Hotels.com it’s now more affordable than ever to book a holiday with Norwegian.”
The new partnership comes as Norwegian is gearing up for the launch of 10 new transatlantic routes from the UK and Ireland to three new destinations in the USA this summer.
