DUBLIN, May 19, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Global Online Accommodation Booking Market 2021" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

"Global Online Accommodation Booking Market 2021" provides insights into the current state and trends of the online travel accommodation market worldwide. Among other findings, the publication reveals that for some of the major market players, the disruptions happened in 2020 resulted in substantial loss of market shares, while some were able to keep their positions.

Recent developments in the global online accommodation booking market

The global online accommodation market on par with the total travel industry underwent substantial disturbances with the onset of the COVID-19. Before the pandemic, the use of mobile devices to book travel accommodation was trending upward, and the share of hotel mobile app usage was the second highest among all applications used for travel purposes.

Since the beginning of the health crisis, however, the share dropped by 12 percentage points, according to the publisher's research findings. This follows the general trend of fall in travel sales and travel application usage due to the pandemic; however, future app usage is expected to exceed the pre-pandemic levels.

The year 2020 made it clear that technology-driven solutions in the travel and travel accommodation industry will be essential in the future. Specifically, 8 of 10 survey responds from select Asian countries stated that accommodation providers would need to use the latest technologies to make them feel safe. Furthermore, travelers across the globe claimed when it comes to choosing a hotel, they would pay closer attention to health and safety standards in future travel.

COVID-19 brought some changes in the travel accommodation market players distribution

Globally, when taken on average, Booking.com was the leading website in the category "accommodation and hotels", as of April 2021, despite having seen significant lower revenue in 2020, as revealed in the new publication. Furthermore, some sources also show Airbnb, Agoda, Traveloka, and Go MMT following Booking in the rankings in specific countries, while legacy global online booking company Expedia underwent a substantial loss in market share in many countries of the world in 2020.
