Booking.com halts China ground transport services

Booking Holdings has announced the suspension and partial termination of its ground transportation services in China, marking a significant change in its operations. Effective October 22, 2024, Booking.com will no longer offer transportation services for future bookings involving pick-ups in China. Starting December 1, 2024, it will also partially terminate agreements related to its Chinese operations. This shift primarily affects international travelers seeking airport transfers and other ground transportation in China. While some suggest challenges related to operating licenses or stricter data regulations may be behind the decision, there is no clear evidence to support these theories, as China has issued licenses to many car-hailing platforms.
