Meet Carmen, a Software Engineer who has been part of our team for almost 5 years! "As well as being a developer at Booking.com, I’m really proud to have become a Sustainability Ambassador. Each week I share ideas for my colleagues about how to be more individually sustainable. I am also attending meetings about different initiatives in the business to increase sustainability and working on new feature ideas to ensure customers are comfortable when renting electric vehicles. It's really satisfying to see sustainability initiatives be placed in a position of importance within the business, and I'm grateful to be involved in working towards something I'm passionate about."

Amsterdam has been our home for more than 25 years and we look forward to a bright future in the capital city. With our new campus becoming home for more than 5,000 colleagues who live and work in the Netherlands, we are excited to reinforce our commitment to the city and this country. As one of the Dutch tech pioneers, we are excited to be a part of Amsterdam’s vibrant tech history and to continue to play an important role as it continues to grow and thrive for decades to come. We are focusing on making it an inclusive place where everyone feels welcome and can do their best work, with sustainability and wellbeing at the core of our approach. Follow along as we look towards the official opening of our new headquarters in the summer of 2023.
It's been one year since the launch of our Travel Sustainable program for accommodations. What a year it has been! The program has grown from a few thousand participating properties to over 400,000 recognized with a Travel Sustainable badge. All of which you can find by simply checking the Travel Sustainable box in your search filter. Now, one year on, Travel Sustainable is continuing to expand and evolve, with new levels to the badge coming shortly that will clearly show the broader spectrum of where partners are on their individual sustainability journeys. Learn more about all the sustainability initiatives we're launching, including some exciting developments for electric and hybrid rental cars, and emissions features on the horizon for flights.
To understand how the world will travel in 2023, we commissioned extensive research with more than 24,000 travelers across 32 countries and territories, combining the findings with our own insights to reveal seven emerging travel predictions for the year ahead.
