The platform is called Citybreak and is developed by Visit Group, one of the Nordic leaders in e-commerce, packaging, and distribution in the tourism industry.<\/p>\n<p>The new solution is interconnected with the hotels\u2019 system, keeping prices and availability updated with less manual processing. The solution also allows passengers who have travelled far and need a break to book a night at the port of departure. During the next stage of implementation, Wasaline will also offer complete service packages. This means we will be able to offer the ferry trips with meals and a cabin, hotel accommodation, and tickets for events or other attractions in one dynamic package.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBooking packages online is easy and pleasant. We can now cooperate with the different service providers on a modern platform, with real-time availability and prices from our partners,\u201d says Peter St\u00e5hlberg, CEO of Wasaline.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are proud that Wasaline has chosen Citybreak to strengthen the operational efficiency of e-commerce, packaging, and distribution. Our aim is to boost the tourism industry in the Ume\u00e5 and Vaasa regions, resulting in many great partnerships,\u201d says James Dixon, CEO of Visit Group.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Further information:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Peter St\u00e5hlberg<\/strong>, CEO, <\/em><a href=\"mailto:peter.stahlberg@wasaline.com\"><em>peter.stahlberg@wasaline.com<\/em><\/a><em>, phone: +358 40\u00a0559 2353<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>James Dixon<\/strong>, CEO, <\/em><a href=\"mailto:james.dixon@visit.com\"><em>james.dixon@visit.com<\/em><\/a><em>, phone: +46 702\u00a0841\u00a0650<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Wasaline<\/strong> is the northernmost shipping company that transports passengers and cargo daily between Vaasa, Finland and Ume\u00e5, Sweden.
