Themes Covered 
We scrape OTA’s, direct hotel, car rental and airline sites (among others) in order to collect e-commerce data and pricing quote information for our clients.
Known Biases 
All data collections have been informed by our competitive pricing clients, so our data represents what our customers are interested in and have shopped for in the past and on an ongoing basis. Therefore, we could be missing data for certain markets, specific companies, etc. if our customer’s focus has shifted. Additionally, QL2 collects offering data from public websites and this may not necessarily reflect actual transactions.
