SEATTLE — Expedia, the online travel agency, is set to lay off 208 Seattle employees on May 1, according to Worker Adjustment Retraining Notification (WARN).

The announcement comes just five days after the company released a regulatory filing, noting they'll be reducing their overall workforce by roughly 1,500 employees.
