LAS VEGAS, Dec. 4, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Oriens Travel & Hotel Management Corp. ("Oriens") (Pink Sheets:OTHM) (http://www.orienscorp.com), a Travel and Hotel Management Company, operating online travel site; 128trip (www.128trip.com) and hotel management subsidiary; Hotel Pure (www.HotelPure.com), is pleased to announce starting in January, 2008, the company will offer a variety of exotic tours into Costa Rica's natural wonders.
Costa Rica has remained as one of the most demanded tourism destinations in the U.S. continent due to the amount of natural wonders in the country, as well as the short traveling time required to arrive into Costa Rica. With the recent addition of Frontier Airlines scheduled flights into Costa Rica consisting of more than 600,000 seats per year, the tourism industry will no doubt enjoy an escalation in the number of tourists in 2008. Oriens has been working diligently for the past months on offering selected exotic tours into Costa Rica. The company is pleased to report that the test integrations of these tours have been quite successful into 128trip's sister web site, www.Rainforest.travel, under the tours section. As a result, these tours will be integrated into 128trip.com within the next 4 weeks for booking. A number of various tours will also increase as they become available.
Oriens is also pleased to report that due to transporting needs by its clients, the company has deployed a passenger shuttle in San Jose, Costa Rica to transport clients from airport to hotels, as well as to various different tour locations. Oriens anticipates increasing the number of shuttles to 4 within the next 4 months. These shuttles will be designed and painted with Hotel PURE and 128trip.com logos on the entire vehicle to further expose Hotel PURE and 128trip.com's presence in the tourism industry in Costa Rica, as these shuttles are traveling back and forth between the airport and Oriens' Hotel PURE properties, as well as to different tour locations.
Ken Chua, President and CEO of Oriens comments, "Adding Costa Rica's exotic tours to our offering has always been one of our most prioritized goals. Now that the test integrations have been completed, we look forward to offering our findings of these exotic tours to the wonders of Costa Rica to our customers in the very near future through 128trip.com, our online travel booking site. I also urge our shareholders to keep www.128trip.com in mind the next time they require any travel needs, whether for leisure or business; they will find our pricings very competitive in the industry. I believe support from all aspects of the company, especially shareholders' support, will no doubt boost the success of Oriens Travel & Hotel Management Corp."
