During the mid-August Massachusetts tax holiday, the reviewer made 2 Best Buy purchases via the American Airlines mileage shopping portal and did not get the miles. He asked the AI to file missing mileage claims, access the receipt data from Gmail, and save a PDF of the Best Buy email receipts to Google Drive.
The AI assembled a split-ticket itinerary from Karachi to San Francisco priced around $1,209, combining separate tickets that a single search would not surface as one trip.
Vibe-built a Wikipodcast app with a Wikipedia dump, Gemma search and summarization, and TTS; actually used it on a Rhine bike trip to listen to local history.
Threads creator hashtaglima had the AI watch a booked hotel reservation; when the rate dropped, the AI rebooked the exact same hotel, room, and dates at the lower price, saving $179 — and the creator verified the saving with the hotel itself.
The AI found the user a car ferry from Croatia to Italy, avoiding $2,200 in rental drop-off fees, booked and paid for it, pulled the plate and car model from the rental agreement, and confirmed he was insured for the voyage.
After Turkish Airlines refused his delayed-flight refund, a traveler used AI to escalate: it assembled a Turkish-language ombudsman filing with his screenshots and the rule citations, and €900 was refunded. He says he would not have had the cognitive space to do it alone.
Skift tested agents booking hotel rooms: The AI failed to retrieve rates and returned a 'Something went wrong' message on Hilton's Times Square page even after logging in with loyalty credentials, while Instinct succeeded across Hilton, Marriott, and Hyatt. Hilton says it isn't blocking agents — the failures read as technical.
A first-person account of testing the AI to fully plan and book a spontaneous trip without doing research: an open-ended goal (good food, beautiful stay, minimal effort). The AI compared destinations, flights, and hotels, noticed the author's saved Instagram folder for Mexico City, suggested ways to use points and travel benefits, and organized everything into a bookable plan — presented as Part 1 of a series.
After quitting her job, creator Brittani asked her AI 'Booked & Busy Betty' for a 4-day beach trip under $2,000; Betty returned options including Cancun and cruises, and also helped plan the itinerary, find clothing, and order travel items — with approval required at each step.
A screen recording shows a proactive AI message: TAP Portugal selling Montreal (YUL) to Lisbon roundtrip nonstop for $602 CAD all-in — 34% below typical best prices — noting it pairs with Manchester United's Champions League away game at Sporting CP on Wednesday, Nov 25 at Estádio José Alvalade. A user reply reads 'the AI is my new travel agent.'
