NORTH PALM BEACH,
Fla.-Travelers who want to book a tee time on a Nicklaus Design golf
course now can take care of all the other important details of their
trip by visiting
www.NicklausTravel.com. The Nicklaus Companies, founded by golf
legend Jack Nicklaus, have partnered with Emagineering, LLC, to launch
this comprehensive site that provides details and an innovative
reservation system for more than 130 Nicklaus Design courses and
associated lodging-with the number growing daily.
There are close to 350 Nicklaus Design courses
open in 34 countries and 39 U.S. states, with ties to some of the
world's most sought-after destinations, hotels and resorts. With more
than 60 of these courses bearing various national and international
Top-100 list recognitions, the demand for tee times on Nicklaus Design
courses is high and NicklausTravel.com is now in place to assist those
golfers and travelers.
"In today's challenging
market, achieving additional exposure and adding distribution channels
are key components of generating more business for our golf course
design clients and their hotel or resort properties," said Scott Tolley,
Vice President of Corporate Communications at Nicklaus Companies. "Our
goal is for NicklausTravel to provide visitors to
www.Nicklaus.com
a comprehensive and convenient vehicle to book hotel rooms and tee
times at resorts and facilities that feature a Nicklaus Design golf
course."
NicklausTravel.com is a true golf industry first.
Deep in design but easy to navigate, the web site is a dedicated online
travel portal that dynamically promotes Nicklaus Design golf courses
with in-depth club profiles, photos and video, course details,
user-submitted content and reviews, plus fully integrated tee-time
reservations and exclusive package offerings.
More than a directory of Nicklaus Design and Jack
Nicklaus Signature Courses, the Emagineering platform integrates a
hand-selected collection of hotels, resorts, and other esteemed
accommodations and golf travel packages.
"
Emagineering designs and provides internet
technology solutions for the hospitality industry," said Matt Dittrich,
President of Emagineering LLC and head of the NicklausTravel project.
"With our tools, we're in a unique position to expand and diversify the
reach the Nicklaus portfolio of clubs can have on the web. The select
hotels and resorts invited to participate have embraced the opportunity
to be featured alongside Nicklaus designed clubs. The response has been
phenomenal in a relatively short period of time, so we fully expect the
roster of courses, hotels and resorts to grow quickly."

consumer-driven information on Academy offerings and specials.
