Company background
ebookers.com, was established in 1998, and its company’s origins go back almost 20 years under the name of Flightbookers Ltd. Flightbookers was founded in Earls Court, London in 1983 by Dinesh Dhamija and in 1996 was the first travel agent to launch an interactive travel website in the UK. This was so successful that in 1999 the internet arm was separated to form ebookers.com and the new company taken public with a flotation on Nasdaq in New York and Germany's Neuer Markt. The $61m raised at flotation was used for a Pan-European roll-out and November 2000 saw ebookers.com buy Flightbookers for $15m and reunite the two companies.
