The addition of these partners brings the total number of travel sites through which Wego users can search and compare prices for air fares, hotel rates (http://www.wego.com/hotels/) and packages to 116.
"We're thrilled to get so many new partners aboard so soon after we launched Wego in May of this year," says Craig Hewett, Wego's Founder and Chief Commercial Officer.

Wego also recently launched www.wego.com.au in Australia, the first of many local sites the company will be introducing throughout the Asia Pacific region.
"We are committed to delivering highly qualified and ready-to-buy online travel shoppers to our partners," adds Hewett. "All throughout Asia Pacific, more and more people are now traveling and using Wego to research and book travel. It's these Internet savvy, value-conscious travelers that Wego is designed to serve and deliver to our travel partners."
