Expedia to provide accommodation on bmi website
Expedia Distribution has signed an exclusive two-year deal with bmi to supply hotel accommodation and packages on the airline’s website.
The company, formerly called Expedia Private Label, will offer flight and accommodation packages and accommodation only, with a particular focus on city centre properties.
These options will be fully integrated into the bmi web site with Expedia co-branding.
The booking engine is available on the bmi points of sale in the UK, US, Spain, Netherlands and France, and will shortly be available in Ireland.
Expedia Distribution already provides accommodation to a number of other airlines, include Iceland Express, Ryanair, Norwegian Air, Iceland Air, SAS, Alitalia and Swiss International Airlines.
