HotelsCombined.com has extended its partnership with Expedia, Inc. covering four markets in the Asia Pacific region.
These markets are Australia, New Zealand, Japan and India.
With the systems integration finalised on HotelsCombined.com, a hotel price comparison engine, consumers within the Asia Pacific region can now search and compare live hotel rates from Expedia's global selection of hotels against other major travel sites.
Visitors choosing to make a hotel reservation with Expedia are then redirected to the respective Expedia site (Expedia.com.au, Expedia.co.nz, Expedia.co.jp or Expedia.co.in) where they will be able to complete their hotel booking without additional fees or markups.
