HomeAway Upgrades Booking Engine, Adds Partners

Austin-based HomeAway said today that it has launched a new version of its online booking engine, WebLink, and also inked a number of partnerships. HomeAway said the upgraded WebLink booking engine, part of HomeAway Software for Professionals, provides a more modern look and feel, adds search widgets, and provide better integration of pricing and online reservations for customers. As part of the new release, the company said it has tied with Black Diamond Luxury Rentals, lofty.com, MyVRMS, Paradizo.com, Ryan Solutions, TrustedGuests.com, and Vay-KDeals.com, all of whom will carry property information from Homeaway on their services. HomeAway allows vacation property rental providers to choose from those and other sites to also advertise their property and availability.
