Case study - weekend.com

Your weekend, better than ever

More travel, less searching: This is the goal of weekend.com.
Challenge
Book short weekend trips quickly and easily. Compare offers as usual and select the best offer. Very simple on the web or mobile in the app for iOS or Android.
Solution
The goal is to create a platform where this is possible, one which meets the needs of our target audience. And the best part: weekend.com now offers its own trips.
Approach
We created a website as well as an app for iOS and Android where it's possible to do just that. It is possible to promote your own offer as well offers from third-party providers.
Welcome to

weekend.com is a platform designed for everyone who wants to make the most of their weekends. Available online and as an iOS and Android app, the service gives customers the power to browse and book weekend getaways from their local airport(s). It functions as a meta search engine – directing customers to partners’ websites to book as well as offering its own dynamically produced, ATOL protected packages which can be booked directly. By working with expert partners and implementing the latest technology, the platform gives customers the chance to handcraft their perfect weekend holiday, on their own terms.
