Ryanair has signed Expedia Private Label as its exclusive partner to provide hotel accommodation for its passengers online.
The new five-year deal will give passengers a choice of more than 20,000 hotels across Europe, ranging from basic budget to five-star luxury.
From 2008, tailor-made hotel deals will be incorporated into the flight booking process.
David Roche, senior vice president of Expedia Private Label, said: “This is an important business win for us and we are very pleased to be working with Ryanair.”
