Environmental Responsibility

We are committed to minimizing the environmental impact of our global business operations and to promoting sustainable business practices in travel and tourism through our sustainability initiatives focused on:

Reducing our Footprint

We were one of the first companies in any industry to design and build a LEED campus as our corporate headquarters and we continue to incorporate sustainable business practices into our operations. These include the use of low-energy fluorescent lighting; low- or no-water appliances; low-water, all-organic, native landscaping; and broad use of recycled materials in our buildings.

Promoting Sustainable Business Practices

We believe in being leaders within our industry and we're proud to say we were a founding member of the Tourism Sustainability Council, which is working hard to encourage a more sustainable future for the travel industry.

Products and Services

From flagging eco-friendly hotels site-wide with our Green Hotel Directory to developing software that helps airlines fly fuel-conserving routes, we're building products and services that help our customers make more sustainable travel decisions.
