Orbitz.com Extends Hotel Booking Fee Cut

Orbitz.com today announced the extension of its dramatic booking fee cut on all of its hotels around the world. This move follows a successful promotional trial that began in April. Combined with the Orbitz 'Huge Hotel Sale' with more than 11,000 properties on sale in thousands of destinations around the world, there's never been a better time to book a hotel on Orbitz.

The extension of the hotel booking fee cut, the introduction of Total Price hotel search results and the launch of Hotel Price Assurance are meaningful differentiators for Orbitz customers.
 
Orbitz Total Price hotel search results, introduced in April 2009, makes it radically easier for consumer to search for hotels. Orbitz is the only major online travel company to show Total Price per night including taxes & fees upfront on the initial search results page. Competitors only show base rate, requiring customers to actually select a hotel before finding out the Total Price.

Launched in May 2009, Hotel Price Assurance promises customers the best Orbitz rate for their hotel. Here's how it works: you book any pre-paid hotel on Orbitz, another Orbitz customer subsequently books the same hotel stay at a lower rate, and Orbitz automatically sends you a check for the difference.
