LONDON: British tour operator Thomas Cook said it had entered into a strategic alliance with Expedia to make the online travel company its preferred provider of hotels for certain holiday sales.
Thomas Cook said that while it remained focussed on its own-brand hotels, Expedia would be the preferred partner for its "complementary city and domestic holiday business", a wider range of hotels to give customers more choice.
