Booking Holdings spends nearly $9 billion a year attracting travelers, and its CFO discusses how AI is changing travel planning.
Booking Holdings spends nearly $9 billion annually on attracting travelers. The company's CFO, Ewout Steenbergen, said at the Fortune AIQ Summit on October 1 that AI is changing the way travel is planned and may have an impact before travelers check into a hotel or board a flight. He described a future in which AI will make travel planning more seamless, personalized, and proactive, potentially suggesting indoor visits to the Louvre during an itinerary in Paris or automatically adjusting restaurant reservations after a flight delay. Steenbergen also mentioned that Booking spends about $8 billion to $9 billion each year on paid customer acquisition channels, with one-third of consumer traffic coming from paid channels.

Retailer attitudes have locked down progress in the agent business architecture.
According to news from Bijie, Forkast reports that the architecture of digital storefronts is currently being reworked for autonomous agents, but retailers' attitudes are stalling this process. When AI agents navigate merchant websites, they face not only technical interface challenges but also a series of proprietary gatekeeping strategies that define the current landscape of agentic commerce. Retailers' attitudes fall into three categories: some are welcoming hosts, proactively providing product catalogs to OpenAI and Google; others are more cautious, allowing agents to browse products but shutting the door at the payment stage; and still others, like digital security guards such as Amazon, have blocked Meta's Muse agent due to unauthorized access and data privacy concerns. According to a January 2026 survey, only 3% of U.S. consumers view chatbots as autonomous purchasing agents, while the Visa Trust Index shows that only 14% of consumers trust agents to conduct transactions on their behalf.
