Abstract :The goal of this study was a competitive analysis of global e-distributors in the hospitality industry. It specifically on Airbnb a peer-to-peer booking model, Booking.com an online travel agent retail booking model, and hotel websites, a customer direct booking model. Hospitality e-distribution systems were assessed using the Five Forces Model, a tool for analyzing the competition of a business, to determine the current dynamics and predict the future implications. In this regard, a focus group study was conducted with a group of tourism scholars and experts working in the tourism industry. Based on the findings of this qualitative research, the paper discusses how each system fills the demand in the changing competitive landscape. The study contributes to the literature by producing a detailed analysis of the dynamic nature of distribution in the hospitality industry from a strategic perspective.
