We’ve Redefined Online Travel Twice
Our history in the travel industry runs deep, with over 40 years of experience providing trusted expertise. What began as a single travel agency has grown into a wide scope of travel services all powered by our innovative, in-house software.
Jumping on the digital revolution train and adopting the technology bug early, we pioneered the first website that offered our customers a single-screen comparison of domestic Australian airfares, accommodation, rental cars and a wide variety of vacation activities. Our aim was to avert the large corporation industry takeover that threatened to push aside independent travel agencies, and, 20 years later, we can say that we succeeded!
Our technology shaped the competitive travel industry seen today, with its impact still resonating throughout the Australian travel sector, leading to the best deals and experiences for travellers.
Over 40 years of proven excellence in the field
The Contal Group Works Across Multiple Brands to Deliver Premier Travel Services to Australian and International Audiences
We took the world by storm in the 90s and 2000s, and kept up the pace with the development of innovative software that facilitated quick and easy access to billions of flights from anywhere, to anywhere, via anywhere.
Our achievements in the travel industry also include being the first company in the world to set up a WAP (wireless application protocol) browser that enabled flight bookings on mobile phones, and the first company to release a travel booking app in the App Store back in 2009.
Seamless Travel Management
Eliminating the Need for External Services with Our Integrated Software
We currently run two online travel agencies that cater to Australian and international audiences, and are in the midst of re-developing our corporate travel app, iSpeedy, for all the major phone platforms.
iSpeedy revolutionises corporate travel by offering unique and inspired features not present in the market today. Features include the ability to change bookings directly in-app, linking with other iSpeedy users and travel companions, integration with social media and on-the-go expense management.
