Sarah Fournier, 22, has Bad Blood with the online travel marketplace after it almost ruined her dream of attending a November 2024 Eras Tour concert in Toronto.

Knowing all too well that hotel prices would soar on the eve of the Eras Tour, Fournier swiftly booked rooms in August 2023 – before she even had tickets.
‘My first thought was to go to Booking.com,’ Fournier told CBC’s Go Public.
