Hilton International gives lastminute.com full access to Hilton’s inventory and provides Hilton with distribution to lastminute.com’s online customer base.

The move comes as many hotel companies re-examine current practice and contracts with third party distributors. Throughout the remainder of 2004 and 2005, Hilton will continue to negotiate with other distributors - online and offline - and by the end of 2005, only those suppliers who have agreed terms with Hilton will be officially authorised to sell Hilton rooms.

David Michels, CEO of Hilton Group plc has stated that the company will cut ties with distributors who persist in operating misleading pricing practices and demand inequitable conditions.
