Flight specialist Oojo is a relative newcomer to the online travel world.
The company launched four years ago and is part of Trevolution Group, which is the travel technology and services part of the wider Dyninno Group.
During an interview at The Phocuswright Conference, Gulce Karsli Rozeveld, who joined Oojo as CEO earlier this year, discussed the online flight specialist’s growth and her thoughts on whether a one-stop travel shop can ever really succeed.
Rozenveld spoke about the huge time, investment and resources required for such an endeavor and said she could only think of about three players that could do it and "even then it will take a long."
She also said more analysis of human behavior and psychology is needed to discover why a truly end-to-end travel platform hasn’t happened yet and whether consumers would trust a single company with all their travel requirements.
However, Rozenfeld acknowledged that artificial intelligence might change everything and said she’s open and excited about the potential of the technology in travel.
