Las Vegas-based Travelscape.com Inc. formed partnerships with three Internet companies to steer travelers to its website.

Tom Breitling, Travelscape.com co-founder and chief operating officer, said today the company signed deals with Ask Jeeves, TravelNow.com and LastMinuteTravel.com.

Ask Jeeves is a question-answering service for consumers and companies on the web. TravelNow was the first independent hotel reservation service on the Internet. LastMinuteTravel is a travel and entertainment ticket listing service specializing in last-minute deals.

Breitling said it's hard to gauge how much additional traffic will be generated by the new partnerships since each of the sites have different objectives and each are in growth modes.

Travelscape also has renewed relationships with Earthlink, MapQuest, AT&T Worldnet, Yahoo!, Expedia.com, Trip.com and Travelzoo.com.
