Expedia, INC. Indaba Summit to reveal facts, figures and trends in online travel bookings for South Africa


CAPE TOWN – Hospitality stakeholders are invited to attend an upcoming summit being hosted by Expedia, Inc., one of the world’s largest travel companies with an extensive brand portfolio that includes leading online travel brands such as Hotels.com and Travelocity. 

Held on the sidelines of the annual Southern African travel showcase, Indaba, the Expedia Supplier Summit will be filled with data, market insights, corporate happenings and useful tips and tricks to use Expedia’s platforms to take your property to market.

“We always go to the summits,” says Hide Away Guest House’s Colleen Harding. “We come away from them completely motivated in terms of new things that we should be looking at and I can’t speak more highly of their representation.”

Tshidi Mkhosana, GM The Federated Hospitality Association of Southern Africa (Fedhasa) Inland, urges hospitality providers to attend the Summit. “If you don’t know much about Expedia, go to the summit. The networking opportunities are out of this world.”

Tshidi believes the information Expedia is sharing, such as providing the ins and outs of social media, how clients can be more proactive by using the Internet to make sales, etc, makes things much easier for the hospitality industry. 

“Before Expedia, the smaller Fedhasa members, especially the B&Bs and guesthouses, were not really sure how to go about promoting themselves internationally. But Expedia came along and explained. Now, they are getting bookings from all around the world, no matter how small the establishment is.”
