What It Is
ebookers is a consumer-facing online travel agency operating under the Expedia Group umbrella, aimed primarily at travellers in the United Kingdom and continental Europe. It offers a full range of travel products including flights, hotel bookings, car rentals, and holiday packages, often with a package-pricing focus that bundles flights and hotels for savings.
Who It Serves and How to Connect
For hotels and accommodation providers, ebookers is effectively an extension of the Expedia Group distribution network. A property listed on Expedia Group via Expedia Partner Central or a connected channel manager is automatically eligible for distribution through ebookers, with no separate contract required. The platform reaches European leisure travellers who are price-conscious and often searching for bundled deals. Its BONUS+ rewards programme gives app users cashback on hotels, further incentivising bookings.
Specialty and Region
ebookers has historically been strongest in the UK market, where it built its brand before being acquired by Expedia Group. It competes with UK-native OTAs and European competitors such as Lastminute.com, and is particularly relevant for hotels seeking exposure to the UK outbound market. The platform supports multiple European currencies and languages, making it a practical channel for properties across Western and Central Europe.
