Japan’s leading online travel metasearch and media, LINE TRAVEL jp, is seeing a rapid increase in visitors to its site, recording 20 million in August 2018.
Venture Republic, which operates the site, says this represents a hike of five million visitors in just three months, from the 15 million in May.
This could be attributed to the large database of travel products and services available and wider reach due to the partnership between Venture Republic and LINE Corporation that saw the integration of their brands and services rebranding as LINE TRAVEL jp.
With the integration, users can use LINE TRAVEL jp on LINE platform as well as the website. They can search and compare over 1.1 million airfares, package tours offered by 250 travel companies, as well as 35,000 domestic and two million international accommodations.
Additionally, LINE TRAVEL jp provides LINE TRAVEL jp Travel Guide, an online media focusing on travel in which over 500 travel experts (travel writers/bloggers) share their ideas on destinations, accommodations and local activities.
Venture Republic says it is pushing to offer “the most unique online travel services in the world that address end-to-end needs of travellers”.
