Do you (or any reader) happen to know the name of the font used in the new Expedia logo?

New in terms of culture, nature, people as well as a travel agency. Out of 20 agencies that I have already worked with only 4-6 were great, others- a real rip off. I have also dealt with Expedia.com, one of the most popular travel websites. I learned about it from www.pissedconsumer.com. I will not say a word about the agency go to www.pissedconsumer.com and read what customers say.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29875741.post-3205668297124608502008-04-07T18:14:00.000+10:002008-04-07T18:14:00.000+10:00agree with need to use UK for easy market identifi...agree with need to use UK for easy market identification, but dropping the dotcom is not anything new among the big 3 in the US -- Travelocity and Orbitz have had this for years.

Redmond wasn't keen at all but once we added consolidated fares and package holidays (alien concepts to the US traveller) not mention deals with the FT, Telegraph etc, it really was a very different animal from the .com version and deserved the UK tag.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
