30 Jul 2024 Booking.comSpain: 413 million EUR against Booking.com for abuse vis-à-vis hotels SpainAbuse of market power €413.2m

Booking.com, with a market share of 70–90 % in online hotel booking in Spain, imposed unfair conditions such as price parity clauses and obstructed other online travel agencies through ranking criteria (Expediente S/0005/21). The CNMC imposed a fine of 413.24 million EUR.

What organisations can take from it

Parity clauses and ranking advantages for exclusive partners are high-risk for dominant platforms.

How the radar is compiled

Official sources only

Every case is based on a decision, press release or database of an authority or a court. Press and law-firm reports count at most as additional references.

Four-eyes check

Whoever enters a case may not approve it. A second, independent check compares company, date, amount and area of law with the source. Only then is the case published.

Comparable amounts

Amounts are converted at the ECB reference rate on the day of the decision. Each case also shows the original amount.

Corrections on record

A correction is a new version that is checked again. Every change is logged. You can report errors directly on each case.

Case texts are translated from the German original. Where a translation is not yet available, the German text is shown and marked “(German original)”. Names of authorities, laws and companies are given as in the source.

The radar reports on published decisions and is not legal advice. Decisions that are not yet final are marked as such where the status is known.
