hotwire.com is a vacation reservation website allowing the user to book flights, hotels, cars, cruises and other vacation packages. The interface for the website is very similar to other travel reservation sites, allowing the user to select dates for their travel and search for immediate pricing. This website has a “trip watcher” which is very similar to other travel reservation sites and the site offers “deep discounts on hotels and flights”. The “deep discounts” are featured on the main page and the starting location is customized to what you have entered or used in the past on the site. The top-level navigation on the home page allows you to search on that particular topic, such as cars, and the right side of the homepage will dynamically update depending on the section you have. For example, if you select the cars link at the top of the site you will see a rental car advertisement with a listing of daily prices for renting a car in popular locations. Regardless of where you are on the website, you will notice links to “welcome”, “sign in”, “my account”, “planning tools” and “customer care” in the upper right hand corner. Additionally, you will see links to the usual “Terms of Use”, “Privacy Policy” and etceteras at the bottom of the site. Finally, the search results page on the site allows you to instantly compare your options to other websites such as Orbitz and Travelocity; you can quickly modify your search on the results page and launch a new search as well.
