Booking Delightful! Booking.com Checks In Stateside To Bring Booking Delight Back To U.S. Travelers

AMSTERDAM, Jan. 22, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The world's best-kept travel secret is about to be revealed to U.S. consumers. Booking.com ( http://www.booking.com), the largest brand in the global online accommodation sector, is set to bring an end to the "click-and-hope-for-the-best" era of online travel planning.

Planet Earth's #1 accommodation site, is undertaking a major brand launch in the U.S. to introduce American travelers to a delightful booking experience that has already been tried, tested and trusted by millions of accommodation bookers around the world. Today, Booking.com's first-ever U.S. brand campaign, Booking.yeah, launches online, in movie theaters and on TV networks across the country to bring Booking.com to an American travel sector that is ripe for innovation and ready for an online solution that prioritizes the customer experience. Booking.yeah aims to build awareness of the company's commitment to the "delight of right".

"Travel and accommodation planning can be a gamble," says Paul Hennessy, Booking.com's Chief Marketing Officer. "We want U.S. travelers to experience that moment of pure delight when they open the door of the accommodation they have booked, see that they have got everything exactly right, and know that this is going to be an amazing trip."

"We are the place on the Internet where travelers can find a home-away-from-home that meets their budget and surpasses their expectations, whether they are booking for an overnight business trip or the vacation of a lifetime." And that's the focus of the Booking.yeah campaign.

Already, on average more than one million guests a night—that's last night, tonight and every night—are staying in hotels and other accommodations booked on Booking.com's platform. The company is the most significant subsidiary of parent company Priceline (NASDAQ: PCLN), both in terms of its size as well as its scope, making Booking.com the largest brand in the global online travel industry. Last month, J.D. Power & Associates ranked Booking.com the top travel website for customer satisfaction.
