Skydive Shows Speed of Booking
In a bid to prove that its mobile booking app is incredibly fast, Hotels.com got extreme athlete and skydiver, J T Holmes to book a hotel while in free fall.
“The Hotels.com mobile booking app helps our customers to make fast last-minute bookings, allowing them to create a malleable travel itinerary, open to last-minute changes,” said Vic Walia, senior director of North America brand marketing.
Holmes was going 115 miles per hour in a 15,000-foot free fall before he landed on Lake Tahoe beach near the hotel he was booking.
