How Booking.com together with the hoteliers can improve the "Sustainable Travel Business"?
Working better for the industry and the world is a priority for Booking.com, what we call the “Sustainable Business”. This includes all aspects: People, planet and business. "Making it easier for everyone to experience the world" encapsulates our mission to democratise travel, driven by the belief in its transformative power.
Booking.com values—Think Customer First, Learn Forever, Own It, Do the Right Thing, and Succeed Together—guide our actions and decisions, emphasizing a customer-centric approach, continuous learning, responsibility, ethical conduct, and collaborative success. These principles shape our efforts to collaborate effectively, ensuring travel remains a force for good, enriching lives worldwide.
To explore all the possibilities, do not limit yourself to any specific field. Here are a few non-exhaustive examples:
Booking.com is a digital travel platform that provides a comprehensive array of travel and accommodation booking options. Established in 1996 in Amsterdam, Netherlands, it has grown to become one of the world's leading digital travel companies. With over 28 million listings, including homes, apartments, and other unique places to stay, across more than 226 countries and territories, Booking.com offers travelers immense choice in destinations.
