Note From the EditorThe best stories take you behind the scenes. Today we learn what was really going on with the seemingly existential moves and counter-moves in a 2009 spat between Expedia and Orbitz Worldwide over consumer booking fees, and how they played a minor role eight years later in the appointment of Barney Harford as Uber's new COO.
Hyatt, meanwhile, jumped on the bandwagon and tightened its cancellation policies. As with Expedia and Orbitz nearly a decade ago, Hyatt's competitors likely are paying close attention because Hyatt imposed the cancellation policy change with a twist — loyalty program members get some immunity. The plot thickens. — Dennis Schaal, Executive Editor |
