PROFILE |
 |
Internet travel site Orbitz.com (formerly known by the code name T2) was founded by five familiar frequent flyers to embrace the online acquisition of airline tickets, rental cars, and hotel rooms. American, Continental, Delta, Northwest, and United Airlines created the Web site to compete with Travelocity and others in the online reservation and ticket sales industry. The company's hotel services are offered through partners Marriott, Hyatt, and Wyndham International. Jeffrey Katz, former president and CEO of Zurich-based SAirGroup's airline Swissair, leads the company as chairman, president, and CEO.
