Lastminute.com plc is an online travel agency founded by Martha Lane Fox and
Brent Hoberman in 1998. Lastminute.com was one of the first companies to provide
large discounts to travellers booking their holidays online. It became famous for its
tradings of Holiday Packages and Flights however lastminute.com has moved on to become
a provider of Sports Packages, Car Hire, Activity weekends, Theatre tickets, Restaurant
Bookings and Nights Out.
More recently lastminute.com has acquired smaller holiday website holdings as it
ever increases its holiday specialisation empire. Websites such as www.medhotels.com,
www.onlinetravel.com , holidayautos.com, travel4less.com, ferrybooker.com, ifyouski.com
and deckchair.com and www.all-hotels.com are all part of the lastminute.com Brand specialising in areas that are not
focussed with last-minute deals but with holidays for specific users who may prefer to
go sky-diving than go to the Bahamas.
Lastminute.com offer a huge range of holidays with a wide range of offers on the home page.
These include excellent winter sun deals and last second ski deals.
