Ever wanted to know what a day’s worth of global hotel searches looks like condensed into 40-second video?

Thought so, but the folks at KAYAK have put together just that anyway on Vimeo to illustrate the volume of searches its websites facilitate and its data expertise.

The Priceline-owned, Booking.com sister meta site claims to process more than one billion queries per year.

The map shows the highest concentration of hotel searches worldwide to help you visualise what people are really searching for when it comes to travel, says KAYAK.

Loella Pehrsson, KAYAK regional director UK, Ireland and the Nordics, said: “At KAYAK, we are lucky to have unique insight into how people search for trips.

“We process an astronomical number of queries every year and we are always looking for new ways to understand the information we have at hand.

“It’s intriguing to see search data presented in a visual format and there are more than a few surprises. As a tech company, our aim is to make online travel accessible and fascinating.”
