TripAdvisor Expands Instant Booking for Hotels to Nine English-Speaking Countries

TripAdvisor has expanded instant booking for hotels to nine English-speaking countries, including Singapore, Malaysia, Philippines, India, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Ireland and South Africa.

Travellers in these markets are now able to book a hotel on all of TripAdvisor’s platforms, desktop and mobile, without leaving the site.

TripAdvisor instant booking is now fully rolled out across 11 countries, following the launch of instant booking in the U.S. and U.K., with a global rollout expected in the first half of 2016.

“We’re excited to help even more travellers around the world conveniently plan and book the perfect trip on our site as we rollout instant booking to more global markets,” said Stephen Kaufer, president and CEO of TripAdvisor. “The momentum we’re building is remarkable and we look forward to continuing our expansion throughout 2016 with the help of our trusted partners.”

TripAdvisor’s partnership with Priceline Group, announced in October 2015, and subsequent integration of its Booking.com inventory has helped accelerate TripAdvisor’s instant booking expansion.

TripAdvisor is also working to integrate inventory from its other instant booking partners so that their supply is available to book on the platform in the near future.

TripAdvisor’s instant booking partners include Accor, Langham Hospitality, Choice Hotels, Starwood Hotels & Resorts, Mandarin Oriental, Marriott International, Hyatt Hotels, Carlson Rezidor, Best Western International, La Quinta Inns & Suites, Priceline Group, and Wyndham Worldwide.
