About Expedia
Expedia is a travel agency that is a subsidiary of Expedia Group, Inc. and provides travel technologies. It is a result of an internal project established by Rich Barton for Microsoft in October 1996. The name consists of the words 'exploration' and 'speed'. Its headquarters are located in Seattle, Washington, USA.
This organization is created to assist in the process of researching and booking different types of travel services like air flights, hotel accommodations, car rentals, cruises, and other vacation options. The target customers are people who plan to make a trip and businesses that provide travel services. This company uses the marketplace approach and retail travel booking, gaining commissions and other revenue sources from this approach and advertisement sales, among others.
Expedia operates worldwide; it has many sites in different countries in many different languages. It has a network of brands and services, providing a multi-branded travel experience on a common travel platform. This company includes Expedia, Hotels.com, Vrbo, Travelocity, Hotwire.com, Orbitz, CarRentals.com, and Expedia Cruises.
Expedia has had an independent life as a publicly held company since 1999, until 2003, when it was acquired by the IAC/InterActiveCorp company and then spun out as an independent, publicly held company in 2005. In addition, it has made many other major transactions, acquiring such companies as Hotels.com, Travelocity, Orbitz Worldwide and HomeAway/Vrbo, and changing its name to Expedia Group, Inc. in 2018.
