With one of the biggest markets for outbound travel of any country in the GCC competition among travel agents in Kuwait is fierce; but Al Ghanim Travel is standing above the crowd with major investments in upping its technology capabilities. Al Ghanim was the first travel agency in Kuwait to this year launch its own online travel booking portal complete with payment gateway; as well as an online booking tool for corporate customers.
The online booking tool was successfully ‘soft’ launched to corporate customers in October, and should be fully functional for both B2B and B2C access by early 2012.
General manager of Al Ghanim Travel, Zaid Al Khubaizi oversees the General Sales Agency (GSA) division (representing major airlines and American Express) as well as the commercial and retail sales division. Al Khubaizi has had 27 years in the industry (of which 15 years was with Kuwait Airways prior to joining Al Ghanim Travel).
