This new partnership will help us improve our technology & bring to our customers an improved flights & hotels booking experience on both mobile & web.”

The highlight however, is the app which takes a millennial friendly approach and offers all the services and travel advice through chat. Messaging is certainly a focus area for many brands now and even the popular social media platforms are bullish on the same. Getting the services on chat allows brands to simplify the user experience significantly while getting rid of the barrier of getting users acquainted to a new interface.
