SHENZHEN, China — Universal Travel Group, a travel services provider in the People's Republic of China, today announced it has increased the number of its TRIPEASY kiosks to more than 200 and significantly expanded its coverage in the Guangdong province in the second quarter of 2009 through strategic partnerships with multiple property-management companies. Universal Travel Group specializes in online and customer representative services to the travel service industry, offering packaged tours, air ticketing and hotel reservation services.
