Qunar

Qunar is a major Ctrip / Trip.com Group competitor in 困在系统里的酒店，你不知道的携程垄断练成史. The source describes it as closer to a travel search and price-comparison engine, with business models around aggregation, advertising, and transaction commissions.

The episode uses Qunar to show that Online Travel Agency competition did not come from only one model. Search, comparison, vertical booking, mobile apps, supplier direct connection, and capital integration all pushed the market toward later OTA Platform Concentration.

EP91 订房订票定江山，携程51亿为傲慢买单 adds Zhuang Chenchao and the mobile-growth angle: Qunar’s app downloads and public price-comparison positioning are used to show how a search-first competitor could pressure Ctrip before the 2015 capital integration.
