Supplementary notes
Âı Figures for eDreams and MakeMyTrip do not refer to fiscal years (ending in March) but to calendar years. Data was calculated by summing the figures of the four calendar quarters.
Figures in euros (eDreams ODIGEO, Trivago, and Lastminute.com Group) and in British pounds (On the Beach Group) were converted to U.S. dollars by looking at the exchange rate on December 31 per each year (and on September 30 for On the Beach Group).Â
