EXPE - market shares

from memory:

EXPE - 40%
Travelocity: 20%
Orbitz: 15% (?)
Priceline and others share the rest.

The advantage to use travel sites like Travelocity or EXPE against other means are package pricing ( Airline Ticket = hotel), availability and ease of use. booking multiple hotels and airline tickets on different websites can get a pretty big chore if one does it on different websites, but is much easier to track if done on EXPE for example.

I see business travel and international business as major growth areas as most are not served well yet (I can talk from my own experience there).

EXPE had more deals that Travelocity but recently this gap has shrunk and now Travelocity is almost on par.
