Using AI as an aid to book your Travel

[mel-world]

I thought I'd like to get some feedback from AFF Members who are already using AI to assist with planning and/or booking their travel. Or members who are contemplating using these tools.

Specifically:

• Which engines do you find the best? Do you use just one or compare two by giving them the same ideas and dates?
• Do you use it for planning only or for planning and booking?
• If the latter, do they default to their favourite booking engine?
• Or do you maintain complete flexibility?
• Once an Itinerary has been generated, does the platform monitor for flight changes, track pricing and tell you the optimum window to book?
• Do you worry about the AI engine retaining and using your data? Or are we well beyond the point of no return re the use of our data?
• Does making an inquiry lead to a flood of messages, junk mail or AI Slop (I think it's called)?
• Do you think you save more than you spend on the subscription(s)?

Hopefully, this will lead to some good ideas and discussion.

AI is useless, can't even see available air fares in real time.
