The 4 main players in travel distribution, Travel Carrefour, Leclerc Voyages, Nouvelles Frontières, and Thomas Cook team up in December to form the Union of Distributors of Travel (IDU). Since its birth, the IDU accounts for 40% of the market distribution of tourist travel, and plans to host other integrated networks of travel agencies , whose business volume is sufficiently significant.
The IDU is a professional association whose mission is to protect the interests of dealers represented. It helps to promote its economic and social role with all their partners and governments.
The association also aims to initiate the thinking and work with other professional organizations in the travel business (tour operating, aviation, hotels, tourist homes, ...), to form a Federation Trades Tourism powerful. The CETO (Association of Tour Operators ), and IDU in this context have chosen to form alliances within the next Federation branch in its own right. They are also in discussion with Level.com (Association of Travel Agents online).
The Presidency of the IVDU is rotating and non-executive. For this first year is the first President Denis Wathier, Chairman of Thomas Cook France.
The major players are talking about:
"The creation of the IDU is a need for distributors of tourism such as Thomas Cook and the founding members of this Union. The crisis of the volcano has revealed particular weaknesses in our power to negotiate with public authorities, both in defense of our interests that those of our customers. With this in mind we want to work with my colleagues in the distribution, creation of a Trades Federation of Tourism. "- Denis Wathier, Chairman of Thomas Cook France
" The group Nouvelles Frontieres measure daily the importance of harmonization between the business of TO, aerialists and distribution. Today we need a common vision in terms of general policy, social, economic and financial. Defend the interests of customers and players traveling in a national, European and international mission is intended by the founders of the IDU. The creation of the IDU is essential to the formation of the National Federation bringing together all the tourism trade. "- Jean-Marc Siano, CEO of Nouvelles Frontieres group
" The newly created IVDU groups the largest integrated distributors of tourism with the same expectations and the same needs. It is a tool for reflection and action, which will provide a foundation for the future federation. "- Bernard Beverage Director E. Leclerc Voyages
"In an environment where change and transformation in our industry are becoming increasingly important, it is urgent not stand still and to define a common vision and wider. The IDU is an initial response. The Federation, a finality. "- Isabelle Cordier, Director Crossroads Travel
