Two corrections:
1. The company's been around since the mid-80s. It was merged into Orbitz in 2004, when Cendant acquired Orbitz, so definitely not "always."
2. Orbitz/Expedia hasn't closed yet, so Expedia doesn't own Orbitz. Will probably be several months before they close, and the deal might not get antitrust approval.
