Fair Wind Sailing School Launches Online Reservation System

Bingham Farms, MI and St. Thomas, VI (PRWEB) October 28, 2007 -- Fair Wind Sailing School - America's Best Sailing School - today announced the launch of its new online reservation system. The new system allows customers to reserve sailing school berths online 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and is immediately active on Fair Wind Sailing's website: http://www.fairwindsailing.com "Fair Wind is thrilled to provide this new system to our customers," commented David Bello, President. "This system expands the ways our customers can interact with us and effectively keeps us open to them 24 hours a day," Bello continued.

To date, few sailing schools have been able to offer online reservation systems due to data security and operational complexity issues. By utilizing PayPal's processing, Fair Wind's system avoids both of these issues. The system provides automated links from Fair Wind's sailing schedules to PayPal's payment system allowing for fast and easy reservations. In addition, since payments are processed by PayPal, no credit card or bank information from online reservations is stored at Fair Wind. "We have worked hard to develop a secure, effective and easy system to use and we hope are customers love it," said Bello. Fair Wind's intent is to continue to expand the system and enhance the user experience.
