Expedia-AirAsia joint venture launches first sites in Asia

October 04, 2011 | Online Travel

The 50-50 joint venture between Expedia Inc. and the Malaysia-based low cost carrier now operates Expedia India, Expedia Singapore, Expedia Malaysia and Expedia Thailand.

Under the agreement’s terms, Expedia gets exclusive distribution rights beyond AirAsia.com of the airline’s flights and packages throughout Asia Pacific, with the exception of Australia and New Zealand.

That obviously means that other OTAs will have a tough sell in proving their comprehensiveness.

The joint venture could have far-reaching implications for both the Expedia and the airline.
