Fly high with Petal Travel Center 

The mobile search engine's Petal Travel Center, a dedicated portal for travel, 
gives users end-to-end support throughout their entire journey, from planning 
their flights to picking a hotel. 

Aiming to bring even more features to its commercial partners, Petal Travel

flights, hotels and tourist attractions in a city readily available at users'

brands. Hoteliers can leverage on PTC to upload hotel feed data and gain 
organic search traffic within the vast HMS ecosystem. Moreover, additional 
performance reporting is available for enhanced accuracy of business results 
tracking.
