The class action, coordinated by the Stichting Hotel Claims Alliance, challenges the 'best price' clauses imposed by Booking.com, which the CJEU has ruled illegal. Hoteliers are seeking compensation for excessive commissions and lost direct booking revenue, as Booking Holdings holds 71% of the online hotel booking market in Europe. This initiative underlines the need for transparency and fairness in the digital tourism sector.
