SEATTLE, Feb. 21, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- To help people
find available accommodations now and throughout the
recovery process, Expedia.com activated the Emergency
Accommodations Portal (https://www.expedia.com/texas) to assist in
providing real-time information on hotel availability throughout
the state of Texas.
The severe winter weather in Texas caused widespread damage and it's become
increasingly clear that many residents may be displaced from their
homes as they await power, water or for repairs to be
made. Expedia teams are working directly with hotel
partners to ensure availability is accurate, current and at a fair
price in an effort to remove any unnecessary added stress
during an already difficult time.
"We are happy to put our resources forward to assist those who
need to find a safe place to stay now and during the recovery,"
said Shiv Singh, SVP and GM for Brand Expedia. "Our hearts go
out to those who have been impacted by the winter storms across
Texas and hope that this can help
to make finding a warm place to stay a bit easier as we're working
to not only pull through available inventory, but we have also put
in price caps to ensure rates remain stable and fair."
To learn more and search for available accommodations,
visit Expedia.com/texas. As always, residents should refer to
local emergency officials for information on recovery progress in
their area.
