Expedia has launched a Singapore travel booking website.

The new website marks the company’s entry into Southeast Asia, and is the fifth Expedia site in the Asia Pacific region, adding to its existing regional presence in Australia, New Zealand, Japan and India.

Expedia also has a presence in China through a controlling investment in eLong.

The new Expedia Singapore website currently offers hotel bookings and will include airfares and packages later this year.

Dan Lynn, vice president and managing director, Expedia Asia Pacific said the launch of the Expedia Singapore website was the first step of further investment in the region with new sites in Malaysia, Korea and Thailand to follow within the first half of this year.
