HOTEL BOOKINGS VIA MOBILE DEVICE CONTINUE TO EDGE NORTH

Mobile now accounts for 35% of all online travel bookings, according to the latest research from Euromonitor.

Booking.com has said that more than half of its bookings are made on a mobile device, while Marriott International CEO Anthony Capuano recently stressed the increasing importance of mobile at a Morgan Stanley event.
