At first glance this looks like a nice article, but despite the fact it is not a stub, I think it fails WP:COMPANY, badly. There is nothing in the article to suggest this 17-person company is notable other than a generic MSNBC ref about the industry (not the company), all refs are from self-published or data mining sites (LinkedIn, Alexa, Trakik, TechCrunch). On a further note, considering how well the article is written with regards to our MoS, Travelgurus (talkcontribs) may be a sock of a more experienced Wikipedian, with implaction for possible CoI (this looks like an article that could have been written for a commission). Now, personally I don't have problems with people writing for commission - provided they follow proper procedures, disclosing CoI, and creating notable articles. This
