Uber Expands Into Hotel Bookings With Expedia Partnership
Uber announced at its annual Go/Get product event that it is adding hotel booking capabilities to its app through a partnership with Expedia, offering access to over 700,000 hotel properties worldwide. The company also plans to add Vrbo home rentals later this year, along with AI-powered search features, airport navigation tools, and boat rides in Europe. Uber One subscribers will receive discounts and earn points on hotel bookings. CEO Dara Khosrowshahi, formerly CEO of Expedia, sees this as a natural extension of the company's travel ecosystem.
