The new site was built from the ground up, but it was supposed to have launched in 2013. By 2015 it still was a work-in-progress and they just went live with the new booking engine to show they had accomplished something.

That's what's been a disaster since day 1. They beta tested it, we found thousands of bugs, and they still went live with it anyway. The old PMCO parts are ugly but work fine.
