We’re all inclusive.

Our purpose as a company is to help everyone experience the world through travel – which is why we created this guide with support from our Pride Employee Resource Group. Created by LGBTQ travellers for travellers, this guide is meant to support your trip planning at any stage, so you can spend less time stressing and more time exploring.

For us that starts from within, with our Employee Resource Groups. The KAYAK Pride Employee Resource Group is an employee-led internal support group for LGBTQ+ members where they can feel accepted, educate work allies and drive awareness of the LGBTQ+ experience. You can meet some of them here.
