Traveloka has axed employees as part of a “workforce evolution focused on capabilities, technology and growth,” a spokesperson told WiT.
“While these decisions are difficult and involve role reductions, they allow us to invest where it matters most for customers and long-term growth,” the spokesperson said.
“We will continue to hire across a wide range of roles, especially in AI, data, product and engineering. We are grateful for the contributions of our colleagues who are impacted and are committed to supporting them.”
It is unclear how many employees were affected.
This is not the first layoff for the Indonesian travel unicorn. There have been reports of staff departures over recent months and unease among the rank and file as to what could be coming as the company reorganizes itself around various verticals including flights, hospitality, tours and activities and corporate travel.
Last week, Philip Yan, formerly of Trip.com, announced on LinkedIn that he was joining Traveloka as head of commercial, flight. Last year, Trip.com veteran Yudong Tan joined Traveloka as SVP of flights after nearly 12 years with the Chinese online travel agency (OTA).
In his year-end review report for WiT, Traveloka CEO Ferry Unardi picked the word “momentum” to describe 2026.
“We’ve built the foundation; now our team needs to convert it into acceleration,” he said.
When asked about the key initiative for the next six months, Unardi said the OTA would be “doubling down on focus: defining our few, non-negotiable priorities and systematically removing noise so the organization can execute with speed and precision.”
Following its move of headquarters to Singapore, Traveloka has expanded its presence across Asia, including Japan, Australia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam. Indonesia remains its core market.
