MARRIOTT is planning to cut commissions paid to online travel agencies, beginning later this year when it renegotiates contracts with the Expedia Group.
Marriott ceo Arne Sorenson told Reuters this week “we would certainly like to pay less” as the group begins its first major contract negotiations since its merger with Starwood in Sep.
Marriott and Hilton have already cut commissions paid for group bookings (TD 27 Mar).
