Orbitz

Flight booking site

Orbitz is a travel website where users book flights, hotels, and rental cars.

Launched in 2001 by several major airlines, it became one of the early dominant online travel agencies alongside Expedia and Travelocity: I found a cheaper flight on Orbitz.

Now owned by Expedia Group.
