Embracing the Future: eDreams ODIGEO Strategic Advantage

Digital landscape

The digital landscape is changing rapidly, with significant changes on how advertisers connect with their audiences. A pivotal shift is the debate around  third-party cookies. Google, after 4 years of discussions around the topic and 3 delays, finally decided to not phase out 3rd party cookies after all. Nevertheless, further limitations will come and it’s important to keep working on alternatives, when cookies are not available. Along this evolving landscape, thanks to our robust first-party data strategy and innovative solutions, eDreams ODIGEO stands in a privileged position, guaranteeing effectiveness regardless of cookie targeting.

Understanding Cookies: The First-Party Advantage

Let's clarify the distinction between first-party and third-party cookies and their importance in the digital ecosystem.

First-Party Cookies are created and stored by the website you are directly visiting. They play a crucial role in improving user experience and they are a direct source of first-party data, such as user behaviour on site, preferences, and interactions.

 Third-Party Cookies, on the other hand, are created by domains other than the one you are visiting directly, often used for tracking and online-advertising purposes. They are collected from various sources and often lack precision.

First-Party Data: the gold of advertising

eDreams  first-party data is accurate, relevant, and rich with insights. This data includes travel preferences, booking habits, and engagement patterns, enabling us to tailor advertising campaigns that resonate deeply with our audiences. With an impressive volume of 16.2 million bookings achieved in 2023, 6.3 million loyal Prime members, (aiming to 7.25 by 2025)  and more than 100 million searches per day, our platform not only provides unique insight into traveller needs and preferences but also offers a vast reach, ensuring our advertising campaigns can connect with a broad and diverse audience effectively.
