Orbitz is a leading online travel agency (OTA) operating at orbitz.com, offering consumers a centralized platform to search, compare, and book travel including flights, hotels, car rentals, cruises, and vacation packages. As a member of the Expedia Group family of travel brands, Orbitz benefits from an extensive global inventory that spans hundreds of airlines and thousands of accommodation providers worldwide.
One of Orbitz's standout features is its Orbitz Rewards program, which allows members to earn Orbucks on eligible hotel and flight bookings. These Orbucks can be redeemed toward future hotel stays, giving frequent bookers a meaningful incentive to return to the platform. The loyalty program is free to join and provides tiered benefits for Silver and Gold members based on annual spend.
The platform is well-suited for travelers looking to bundle and save. Package deals combining flights and hotels — or flights, hotels, and car rentals — can offer significant discounts compared to booking each component separately. Orbitz also regularly features exclusive member prices on hotel rooms, accessible to logged-in Orbitz Rewards members.

It is important to note that cancellation and refund policies on Orbitz are largely governed by the individual airline or hotel's own terms, not a universal Orbitz policy. Travelers should carefully review the cancellation terms displayed at checkout before confirming any booking. During the preparation of this review, the Orbitz website returned access errors, so specific policy details could not be independently verified from the live site.
