Material uncertainty over going concern
On 1 January 2024, following a broader Expedia Group strategy to consolidate UK operations, the Company transferred the entire workforce to a fellow group entity Expedia.com Limited. As of that date all intercompany agreements were cancelled and the Company's previous support service activities to the wider Expedia Group were ceased. As a result of the directors' decision to cease operations, the Company will be subsequently struck off and therefore, the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024 will be prepared on a basis other than going concern.

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
