LAS VEGAS–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Budget Center Inc. (OTC: BDGN) (the “Company”) is pleased to announce that the Company is preparing to launch www.budgetairlines.com with the intention of targeting online bookings in the discounted air travel sector.

The new website, which Management plans to launch soon, will focus on providing online travel shoppers with the ability to search for flights which serve the discount carriers only such as Southwest Airlines, West Jet, and Jet Blue etc. The site will not search for flights from the major carriers such as British Airways, Cathay Pacific etc. as these airlines do not represent its target market. Currently, discounted flights and airlines are generally difficult to source on large travel sites such as Expedia and Travelocity and are being under serviced to online consumers.
