AI TOOK OVER YOUR ITINERARY

A NEW AGE OF TRAVEL PLANNING WHERE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE TURNS EVERY TRIP INTO A PERSONALISED EXPERIENCE

- Words By: Aadithya Harish

THE NEW TRAVEL COMPANION Planning a trip used to be a stressful mix of endless tabs, travel agent calls, comparing prices, and praying you made the right choices. But today, artificial intelligence has quietly taken over the most time-consuming part of travel planning, and honestly, it might be the best upgrade modern travellers have received. From finding flights to suggesting unique activities, AI has become the companion you did not know you needed but now cannot do without.

I realised this during my last trip to Dubai. Normally, I would spend days checking hotels, comparing itineraries and scrolling through travel vlogs just to understand what is worth seeing. This time, I let AI tools, including ChatGPT, do everything. You simply tell it the dates, your budget and the kind of trip you prefer, and it builds a complete plan that feels surprisingly personal. Instead of rigid travel packages, you get an itinerary shaped around your interests, your energy levels and even your preferred pace.

Across the world, millions of travellers are doing the same. Instead of Googling for hours, they just ask AI. The comfort of conversational planning combined with the power of global data is the new magic formula for travel.

AI KNOWS WHAT YOU WANT BEFORE YOU KNOW IT

What makes AI so transformative is its ability to understand preferences in a human-like way. Whether you prefer adventure, luxury relaxation or budget-friendly trips, the system recognises your style and keeps refining suggestions. It compares thousands of options in seconds, giving you not just the cheapest deal but the best experience for your money.
