Orbitz Cares
Orbitz is the first and only travel site with a seasoned Customer Care Team that monitors nationwide travel conditions for our travelers around the clock, every day. At our command center, the Care Team gathers and interprets FAA, National Weather Service and other data to provide you with travel intelligence - real-time information that travelers won't find elsewhere.
At Orbitz, the customer relationship doesn't end when you hit the "purchase" button. The Orbitz Care Team is on the case 24/7 while you're on the road, providing automated Travel Alerts and Flight Updates via your device of choice: mobile phone, pager, PDA or e-mail. If you want, you also can receive your updates by calling the Orbitz toll-free number and using your personalized PIN. Orbitz is there to make your journey as easy as possible, providing the latest information on flight delays, weather conditions, gate changes, airport congestion or any other event that might impact your travel.
How it All Started
Five airlines - American, Continental, Delta, Northwest and United - came together to fulfill a mission: Develop a travel website that would serve people better.
