Booking Holdings has announced a leadership change at its flagship brand Booking.com.
Glenn Fogel, CEO of Booking Holdings, has expanded his responsibilities to include CEO of Booking.com, replacing Gillian Tans who is now chair of Booking.com.
The changes are effective immediately.
Tans has been CEO of Booking.com for nearly three years and had been president and chief operating officer since 2011.
