Mary Barra, CEO General Motors

So I love to run. I like to run long distances. And part of it for me is sort of the joy of feeling the pain and the grit and knowing you have to dig deep. And I think a lot of times making business decision is like being a marathoner. In other words, you know what the finish line is that you really want to get to but, along the way, it’s not always pure joy. There are really hard moments. But if you keep your eye on the prize, it’s part of what drives you to get there.”

Kevin Plank, founder and CEO of Under Armour

“It takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin it. If you think about that, you’ll do things differently.”

Darren Huston, CEO BlackPines Capital Partners

“There’s an entrepreneur right now, scared to death, making excuses, saying, ‘It’s not the right time just yet.’ There’s no such thing as a good time. I started an apparel manufacturing business in the tech-boom years. I mean, come on. Get out of your garage and go take a chance and start your business.” ~ Darren Huston

Indra Nooyi, chairman & CEO of PepsiCO

“I always did something I was a little not ready to do. I think that’s how you grow. When there’s that moment of ‘Wow, I’m not really sure I can do this,’ and you push through those moments, that’s when you have a breakthrough.”

Agatha Juma the chief executive of the Kenya Tourism Federation, stated the ranking indicates “that despite the challenges facing Kenya, the country and the region remain on the radar of investors and tourists. Such investments imply there is a foreseen growth in tourist numbers to occupy these rooms.”

Booking Holdings Is a Better Investment than Expedia- Do you know why?

If you people are aware that both booking holding and Expedia are online platforms. Both companies help you to buy airline tickets and making hotel reservations, but there is a big financial difference between both. 


Let’s See: Geographic Exposure

The key difference between Booking Holdings and Expedia is that the markets they serve. Expedia derives a majority of its business from us while Booking Holdings primarily operates in Europe. Initially, this might sound sort of a minor detail, but it’s crucial to understand the financial performances of the 2 companies.

The hotel markets in Europe and North America are quite different. While the United States is dominated by chains such as Hilton and Marriott, the European hotel market is primarily served by smaller boutique hotels. Large hotel chains control tens of thousands of rooms and centrally negotiate their contracts with online travel agencies, which allow them to secure more favorable contract terms and lower commission rates.

Therefore, Expedia collects much lower commissions on its hotel business. It clearly shows that booking holdings (earlier Priceline) keeps on growing in 2020 also.

The service could also be important to on-the-go consumers who increasingly depend on their smartphones to manage travel itineraries and find recommendations on where to eat while they’re visiting unfamiliar cities.

Amex’s in-app eatery reservations device can recognize its brand from rivals in the travel booking and payments industries.
