LODGENET INTERACTIVE CORPORATION ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER
EARNINGS RELEASE AND TELECONFERENCE DATE

Long-Term Debt Reduced by $13.6 Million During Second Quarter

SIOUX FALLS, SD, July 8, 2008 – LodgeNet Interactive Corporation (NASDAQ: LNET) announced today that it will release its second quarter financial results after market on Tuesday, July 29th, 2008. The company will also host a teleconference to discuss its results July 29th, 2008 at 5:00 P.M. Eastern Time.

The Company also announced that it reduced long-term debt during the second quarter from $630.2 million (as of March 31, 2008) to $616.6 million (as of June 30, 2008); and that cash and cash equivalents as of June 30^th was approximately $15.5 million. As of June 30, the Company’s $50 million revolver portion of its Credit Facility was unused.

“While the economy and the travel industry are facing near-term challenges, we remain focused on delivering on our free cash flow target range for 2008,” said Scott C. Petersen, LodgeNet President & CEO. “The flexibility of our business model allows us to actively manage our capital investment plan and balance sheet and as a result we reduce long-term debt by more than $13 million during the Second Quarter. We prudently reduced capital investment levels and operating expenses during the second quarter and have taken similar steps for the Third Quarter as we have adjusted our capital investment target down to $15 million. We believe these initiatives will put us in a position to further reduce our long-term debt levels and remain within our debt covenants for the balance of the year.
