Choice Hotels International, Inc. announced its collaboration with AAA and CAA to bring exclusive discounts and promotional offers to AAA and CAA’s more than 64 million members.
“We are thrilled to be named AAA and CAA’s first Preferred Hotel Supplier in a decade,” said Abhijit Patel, vice president, revenue management and distribution, Choice Hotels. “AAA and CAA members represent a significant market with a combined membership that accounts for 31% of all paid room nights across North America. Choice’s offerings are ideally positioned in drive-to markets throughout North America that will cater to AAA and CAA members.”
AAA and CAA members are known for their significant contribution to the travel industry, spending millions of dollars every day on lodging stays alone. As one of North America’s largest leisure travel agencies, AAA and CAA offer a full range of travel services, making this collaboration with Choice Hotels a perfect fit.
“The addition of Choice Hotels’ select brands to our AAA and CAA portfolio offers members a plethora of lodging options, including competitive member discounts across a multitude of locations,” said Paula Twidale, senior vice president, AAA Travel. “We are excited to expand both product offerings and benefits relevant to our AAA and CAA membership and brand.”
AAA will be inspecting the hotels of five Choice Hotels brands – Cambria® Hotels, Ascend Hotel Collection®, Country Inn & Suites by Radisson®, Comfort®, and Radisson® – to achieve the prestigious Diamond-designated status. This designation will further enhance the visibility and reputation of these brands with AAA and CAA’s members.
