LONDON, November 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Travelzoo , a global Internet media company, today announced the launch of the Travelzoo Network(TM) in the UK. The Network will greatly extend the reach of Travelzoo's researched and test-booked deals by publishing them on high-profile partners' websites. The first websites to showcase Travelzoo(R) deals are AOL Travel, Fly.com, Lonely Planet, SimonSeeks, Skyscanner and Visit Britain.

The Travelzoo Network in the UK now reaches an average of 50 million page views per month. The UK launch follows a successful rollout in the US, where the Network reaches over 500 million page impressions per month across 150 leading US websites.

"Partnerships with these important organisations and companies are a testament to the quality of Travelzoo's content. We only publish relevant travel and entertainment deals that are authentic, checked and truly available. Our partners value our commitment to quality deals - that is why they want to be part of this network," said Melanie Bower, Vice President, Travelzoo Network, Europe.

Travelzoo deals are displayed on partners' websites based on user origin and destination search criteria or the theme of the partner's website.
