Book flights, hotels, and more while supporting reforestation efforts with Ecosia Travel, powered by the sustainable search engine Ecosia.
Ecosia Travel is an online travel booking platform launched in 2022 by Ecosia, the search engine that uses its profits to plant trees. Ecosia Travel aims to provide a more sustainable way to book flights, hotels, rental cars, and other travel services.
When travelers book through Ecosia Travel, the platform invests at least 80% of its commissions into Ecosia's tree planting programs around the world. This helps to offset the carbon emissions produced from the traveler's flights or hotel stays. Over its lifetime, a single tree can absorb over 1 ton of CO2 from the atmosphere.
Ecosia Travel features an intuitive search-and-book interface that is similar to other major OTAs like Expedia or Booking.com. Users can enter their destination and travel dates to compare and book flights, hotels, vacation rentals, trains, bus tickets, and more all in one place.
As a certified B Corporation, Ecosia Travel is committed to ethical business practices and environmental sustainability beyond just tree planting. The company aims to promote eco-conscious hotels, transportation, and destinations. Travelers can use filters to find the most sustainable travel options.
While still new, Ecosia Travel has received positive feedback for its seamless booking experience and novel approach to offsetting carbon emissions from travel. As the platform develops further partnerships, it aims to provide an ever wider range of sustainable travel options at competitive rates compared to conventional OTAs.
