Description | BookingBuddy provides travel comparison tools. On BookingBuddy, you enter travel parameters such as destination and dates and it will search flights on multiple platforms like Expedia, Travelocity, Priceline, Hotwire, or Orbitz. However, each platform has its own window. So your screen will be full of browser windows, which could be very annoying. Although this obsolete technology is still used, BookingBuddy also adopted the newer meta-search technology that shows prices from different vendors on the same page. |
History | Bookingbuddy started as a brand of Smarter Travel in 1998. In September 2003, BookingBuddy.com launched its flight comparison tool. In January 2004, it introduced hotel and cruise comparison tools. The company generated around $26 million revenue in 2007 and acquired by TripAdvisor. |
