Expedia will be looking nervously over its shoulder this month after Webjet came within a whisker of stealing top spot in the list of leading travel sites in New Zealand in September.
Webjet is just a little over 0.5% market share behind Expedia after increasing its tally by 0.75% last month, as the market leader saw its own figure drop marginally.
