cFares, a membership-based Internet travel service that seeks the web for the widest selection of discount airfares, has integrated Elleipsis' TravelTalk web services into its mega-search model site.

The company stated that the selection of TravelTalk fare search and booking solution will enable cFares to offer consumers "an unprecedented selection of global travel options at a discount well below the published rates on other travel sites."

Elleipsis, which secures travel fares through its agreements with the major GDS, including Amadeus, Sabre and Galileo as well as international consolidators, is able to offer previously unpublished "net" airfares. By integrating TravelTalk into cFares' search platform, these discounted fares are reaching the growing global travel marketplace.

"At cFares, our success is based upon our ability to search and deliver a broad selection of discount fares from many sources not available on any single site," said Vajid Jafri, cFares' founder and Chairman of the Board. "Through Elleipsis' TravelTalk, we are able to tap into unpublished private fares as well as the GDS published fares, and bring the lowest price results to our customers."

While anyone can use the site's service for free, cFares offers a Platinum membership option, similar to the "Costco" model, which offers additional savings on all airfares.
