The move Booking.com retained the lead at **83.7%** citation share, up 1.9 percentage points from the previous edition, with consistent first-rank positions across ChatGPT (**77.6%**), Gemini (**85.7%**), and AI Mode (**87.8%**). MakeMyTrip is the biggest mover, gaining 8.4 percentage points to **68.7%**, with gains spread across all three engines and AI Mode the strongest at **75.5%** (rank 2); the gain coincides with spicejet.com, akasaair.com, and airvistara.com entering the citation pool today. Airline and booking-context content typically carries OTA booking references, and makemytrip.com is the second-most-cited domain overall with **38 citations** primarily via AI Mode. ixigo also gained 3.7 percentage points to **44.2%**, led by ChatGPT at **51%** (rank 3), consistent with a broader pool expansion favorably covering Indian OTAs. What it means The travel-OTAs vertical is competitive at **83.7%** for the leader, with MakeMyTrip at **68.7%** within range of contesting the top position if the current trajectory holds. MakeMyTrip's 8.4-percentage-point gain has a plausible and testable mechanism: airline own-site content, specifically spicejet.com, akasaair.com, and airvistara.com, entered the pool today, and airline content typically integrates booking-link OTA context; if those domains remain in the pool, the gain should prove partially structural. The AI Mode-specific strength of MakeMyTrip (**75.5%** vs **61.2%** on ChatGPT) mirrors a pattern seen in other verticals this edition where AI Mode is showing broader citation of Indian-market brands compared to ChatGPT. Operators in this category should prioritize coverage on airline-adjacent domains, hotel-chain content, and travel-aggregator publishers over generic travel blogs, as the confirmed top citation sources, happyfares.in (**27 citations**, primarily ChatGPT) and makemytrip.com (**38 citations**, primarily AI Mode), show that booking-context publishers outweigh editorial travel content in this vertical.
