Orbitz, Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Expedia Group, Inc.

Orbitz, Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is a current subsidiary of Expedia Group, Inc., which means that any emissions data or climate commitments may be inherited from its parent organisation. As of now, Orbitz, Inc. has not publicly disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing its carbon footprint. The absence of documented emissions figures and reduction commitments suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy. Orbitz's climate commitments and performance are likely aligned with those of Expedia Group, Inc., which has established various sustainability initiatives. However, without specific data or targets from Orbitz itself, it is challenging to provide a detailed overview of its climate impact or commitments. In summary, while Orbitz, Inc. is part of a larger corporate family that may have climate initiatives in place, it currently lacks publicly available emissions data and specific reduction targets.
