Planning a family holiday in Florida, Eric opened a voice call with Jarvis about skydiving availability. By the end they had worked through airport pickup, three jumpers split across two aircraft loads, two boys waiting on the ground, drive time and the rental check-in, and slotted the jump into otherwise dead travel-transition time. When he pushed back on an early Everglades start, the plan moved and the shareable itinerary updated with it.
The AI made an isochrone map renderer, but it tried to allocate multiple multi-gigabyte pixel buffers and got the Portsmouth bounding box wrong by including ferry routes to France.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
By voice, Simmons asked László for an October 15–18 Montreal trip: a central, inexpensive Airbnb, the cheapest direct flight with an aisle seat, and a plan of things to do. The Dot compared stays, caught repeated complaints about a squeaky Murphy bed at a 4.75-star listing, filled in his flight details from his travel records, rerouted the Mont Royal walk because the cross was under construction, and stopped at checkout for him to pay.
Sayer PM had the AI book and pay airport parking with Tesla charging, give fall-break flight advice, and compare Ace vs Lowe's prices straight from a receipt photo.
G Schwartz had the AI list and sell his Yeat Central Park concert tickets on StubHub, with the agent handling the listing through credentials found in email. The tickets sold.
Vo asked the AI to buy IMAX tickets for 'The Odyssey' in Daly City during daytime hours when she has a nanny. The AI found showtimes, navigated the Cinemark site's guest checkout, and reached the payment screen using a Stripe Link virtual card.
Points-and-miles creator Rachel Tyers says her AI caught a flight booking error that could have wrecked her week, flagging it before she noticed. The bot drafted the fix for her approval; the caption never says what the booking error actually was.
When a restaurant booking of the writer's was canceled, his dot found him alternative tables on its own initiative, part of a few days of proactive schedule and logistics management after he connected it to his Google account.
A traveller's the AI checked him in for his flight automatically as soon as check-in opened. It told him his boarding group and sent him his boarding pass, with nothing for him to remember or open.
Allison Amini, a travel advisor (someone, 5.3K followers), asked whether to book now or wait for Christmas flights (LAX to SJO/Liberia, Dec 22-30). The AI’s 'Journey' asked clarifying questions, advised booking soon (fares ~$1,213 round-trip, peak demand), and with permission set a 3-hour watcher that only alerts on significant drops.
A testimonial graphic quotes someone: '@the AI just helped me book flights for my euro trip. someone is a nightmare for Americans FYI and muse suggested we try going through PayPal...' The agent worked around Ryanair's US-payment friction.
A commenter says he feeds the AI his booking details and complaint and lets it negotiate petty corporate disputes. For a Milan hotel stay, the AI first won a free night he rejected, then a 25% reimbursement he accepted.
Type-B traveler Chelsea used her AI 'Sir Wiggles' (penguin avatar) to scan hundreds of saved Instagram posts, extract everything saved from Sardinia, and generate an itinerary — converting scattered saved content into a trip plan for the Sardinia leg of a month-long Italy trip.
FlipIt's account of Business Insider's reporting describes UX designer Jay Eskenazi feeding his own compiled notes and recommendations into AI during a three-week Europe trip. The AI mapped his points of interest and exported routes into Google Maps, updated afternoon itineraries as plans shifted — accounting for opening hours, ticket availability and real-time events — and surfaced Barcelona festival information not yet fully published in English.
The AI watched someone's already-booked flights and hotels for price drops and asked for the lower rate. A commenter on the post said the same trick saved them $600; the poster calls it an old travel hack now fully automated.
Ethan Mollick writes that the AI noticed an airline credit of his was about to expire and, when he asked, contacted American Airlines to request an extension — an example of agents catching deadlines their owners miss.
His scheduled search looks 8 days to 12 weeks out for same day return flights from Stansted under £30, and checks Eurostar promo fares too. The point is the tobacco run: 200 cigarettes cost him about £150 at home and about £50 abroad, and he gets a day in a city he would not normally visit out of it.
