Description
(AWP Alliance News) - Booking Holdings outlined slowing travel demand at its third-quarter 2026 earnings call on Nov. 3, attended by CEO Glenn D. Fogel, CFO Ewout Lucien Steenbergen and equity analysts. Adjusted EBITDA rose 9% to approximately USD 4.6 billion, while room nights increased 7%, both exceeding the high end of guidance.
Management forecast fourth-quarter room-night growth of 1%-3%, with adjusted EBITDA expected to be roughly flat year over year. The outlook reflects weaker international travel demand, including disruptions linked to the Middle East conflict, alongside increased planned investment in technology and new travel offerings.
For the full year, management maintained expectations for high-single-digit growth in adjusted revenue and adjusted EBITDA.
