The coming weeks could see Booking.com given the go ahead by ICANN for the .HOTELS top level domain.
What that means is that the online accommodation giant will effectively control how and when .HOTELS is used, a thought that is sending shivers down the spine of some in the hotel industry.
The Priceline-owned brand is the only company to apply for the .hotels domain echoing Google’s move to secure the .FLY domain alongside a string of others including .CAR and .SHOP.
