Cancellation of admission

Online Travel Corporation PLC
30 April 2004


Online Travel Corporation plc ('OTC' or the 'Company')

Cancellation of admission (the 'Cancellation')

The Company announces that it has applied to the London Stock Exchange for the
cancellation of the trading of OTC shares on the Alternative Investment Market
('AIM'). In accordance with the rules of AIM, it is anticipated that the
Cancellation will take effect from 8.00 a.m. on 1st June 2004.

This follows the announcements on 29th April 2004 and 30th April 2004 by
lastminute.com plc ('lastminute.com'), inter alia, that its recommended offer to
acquire the whole of the issued and to be issued share capital of OTC was
unconditional in all respects and that it intended to procure that OTC applied
for the cancellation of the trading of OTC Shares on AIM.

OTC shareholders who have not accepted the lastminute.com offer should note that
the Cancellation is likely to reduce significantly the liquidity and
marketability of OTC shares.
