Inclusion & Diversity

Expedia has done an exceptional job of implementing a solid, robust code base to interact with screen reading technologies… allowing us to book flights and hotels regardless of disabilities.

In a highly competitive tourism landscape, connecting local hosts (and as such their local experiences) to travelers from around the world is a formidable challenge for small to medium sized enterprises. Leveraging on Expedia’s platform however has helped us to bring the two worlds closer together, thus, allowing us to focus on continuing to deliver great local experiences to travelers from the world over!

We not only partner with Expedia Group to connect our guest from around the world to unique ports of call but we also craft one of a kind experiences to exclusive destinations such as Perfect Day at CoCo Cay for our guests to enjoy unique cruise adventures and experiences within. This private island destination in the Bahamas has brought increased tourism to the area, creating jobs and security for the Bahamian people, their families and the overall community. We strive to create the best experiences for our traveling guests and make the places we visit more sustainable too!

At Expedia Group’s partners conference, thousands of attendees donned vivid, handmade lanyards from the Suku Laut women of Berakit and Kawal in Bintan Island, Indonesia. These lanyards were not just a vibrant means to display our names and companies, they were a critical display of Expedia Group’s commitment to bringing the world within reach by supporting local economies around the globe. Working with Island Foundation of Singapore, each handwoven lanyard supported the charity’s education and literacy program, lifting the next generation.

Qantas is proud to champion the spirit of Australia – from working with Indigenous-owned companies to source local products and create jobs, to representing the diversity of our people and our customers through our partnerships with community organisations, and helping millions of Australian families get one step closer to their dream trip through our Qantas Frequent Flyers program. Our partnership with Expedia helps us to know our valued customers are made to feel welcome every step of the way.

“As one of the world’s leading travel companies, Leonard Cheshire were delighted to partner with Expedia Group on an industry report outlining how travel providers can create inclusive and accessible products and services for travellers with disabilities. Through this collaboration, Leonard Cheshire witnessed first-hand Expedia Group’s vision, drive and determination to not only influence the wider industry but become a truly inclusive organization themselves. We are excited about how the report learning can be actioned and built upon and how Expedia Group will continue to impact the industry.”
