Press for KAYAK
Kayak isn’t slowing down on its quest to connect (and possibly dominate) the online travel industry anytime soon. The travel search engine surpassed a record 100 million user requests in January for flight, hotel, car and other travel searches performed on its website site and mobile apps.
Kayak is unveiling its biggest ever website redesign, one that it says is iPad-influenced and an attempt to create a uniform user experience across the travel metasearch company’s myriad platforms.
Explaining the origins of the redesign, Paul English, Kayak co-founder and chief technology officer, says Kayak has a semi-independent iPhone team, working under the supervision of Bill O’Donnell, chief architect and general manager of Kayak Mobile.
After redesigning its iPad app and consolidating the app with its iPhone cousin, travel search company Kayak is updating the UI for its web search portal today. The aim with the redesign is to create a more universal and comprehensive consumer experience across all Kayak platforms: web, mobile web and apps.
We're excited to add HomeAway® Founder and CEO Brian Sharples to our Board of Directors.
