DALLAS, TX. July 12, 2016 - DHISCO Inc., the world's leading hospitality distribution company, today announced it has been selected by the Abu Dhabi-based tour operator Nirvana Travel and Tourism LLC to power its global growth.
The partnership is the latest in a series of new alliances DHISCO has forged to help the growing Middle East travel sector expand globally by ensuring companies like Nirvana Travel and Tourism have access to the best rates and room inventory around the world through its online booking system.
Nirvana, the leading full-service tour operator in the United Arab Emirates, recently opened offices in China, Spain and Saudi Arabia. During the next year, it plans to expand to Germany, France, the United Kingdom and the United States.

And we are working to expand our reach to help both hotels and distributors across the Middle East and other emerging markets grow their businesses by providing the advanced technologies that connect them to the world.”
