Building on an already successful relationship, Ctrip.com International, Ltd. (Nasdaq: CTRP) is proud to announce a strategic global partnership agreement with Radisson Hotel Group. This collaboration brings together the largest online travel company in the Asia Pacific region and one of the largest hotel groups in the world.

Through the agreement, the two companies will work to expand the global distribution of Radisson Hotel Group’s premium properties – giving travelers a wider choice of destination and hotel.

Ctrip will play a key role in supporting Radisson Hotel Group’s growth in China – a key focus market for the group and its brand portfolio.

The agreement is a huge step forward for both companies, allowing Chinese travelers greater access to Radisson Hotel Group’s high-quality portfolio of hotels than ever before.

“We are delighted to have signed this agreement and look forward to our collaboration with Ctrip,” said Eric De Neef, Executive Vice President & Chief Commercial Officer, Radisson Hotel Group. “Ctrip is a powerful partner supporting our reach expansion in China and the entire Asia-Pacific region. At the same time, we will be able to jointly bring more Chinese travelers to our EMEA and U.S. properties and to further strengthen Radisson Hotel Group’s upcoming “Welcome China” value proposition for our guests”.

“We’re very excited to be deepening our collaboration with Radisson Hotel Group, one of the world’s largest premium hospitality groups,” said to Ray Chen, CEO of Ctrip Accommodation Business Unit.
