NEW YORK, June 7, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Travelzoo Inc. (NASDAQ: TZOO), a global Internet media company, today announced that it has started publishing Local Deals in Vancouver, Canada, home to 165,000 of Travelzoo's 23 million subscribers worldwide. Vancouver is Travelzoo's 75th Local Deals market; the company has added 28 new markets since March 31.

Mike Stitt, General Manager of Travelzoo Local said, "Over the past two months we have accelerated the number of market launches in North America and Europe, adding 28 new markets and staffing accordingly. As we enter more and more markets, it is becoming increasingly common to hear from merchants that Travelzoo subscribers are more mature, more affluent and more likely to be repeat customers. This consistent feedback is indicative of our brand position.
