Online travel booking agency, Expedia Group, has announced a new framework solution for difficulties that challenge Thai hoteliers.

Pimpawee Nopakitgumjorn, director of market management at Expedia, said the group has witnessed an increasing amount of interactions made by consumers and hoteliers on its platform.
