How Predatory OTAs Impact Hotel Direct Bookings | Operto x CHLA Webinar

Thanks for joining Operto and the California Hotel & Lodging Association (CHLA) for a conversation about predatory OTAs and the growing challenge of protecting hotel direct bookings.

In this webinar, Operto CEO Tim Major and Chief Product Officer Adam Hert explored how third-party booking websites intercept hotel-branded searches, what this means for revenue and guest experience, and the practical steps hotels can take to protect their bookings.

What you’ll learn:

  • How predatory OTAs intercept direct bookings
  • Why your OTA reports might not tell the full story
  • How third-party bookings affect the guest experience
  • Smarter ways to protect your hotel on Google

Tim and Adam also walked through real hotel search examples, showing how easily guests can end up on third-party booking sites and what operators can do to help keep more bookings direct.
