No more crawling through the web finding flights, hotels, and itineraries hours at a time. Thanks to AI travel tools, your next vacation may be as simple as sending a text. Here’s a closer look at how travelers are employing A.I. to create their dream vacations in 2025.
AI for Quick and Instant Trip Planning
With summer travel season right around the corner, millions of Americans are already planning to hit the road. This year, however, many are on board with relying on AI-powered travel platforms to avoid the hardest aspect of their vacations: the planning.
The writeup Lindsay Feldman, CEO of BrandBomb PR recently documented an excursion planning session with ChatGPT.
“Things are always flying a mile a minute, I don’t have time — so I need good information and I need it quickly,” Feldman said.
Rather than browse these innumerable sites, Feldman turned to ChatGPT for a little assistance, and voilà, answers at his fingertips.
“I was being delivered everything that I needed immediately,” she said.
And best of all, AI travel assistants such as ChatGPT can really get into the nitty gritty — including how to get from point A to point B optimaly using public transit.
“It put me on a course from start to the closest train station, told me to take this train, it even told me where to transfer,” Feldman said. “No, it was a total game-changer.”
Tailor Made ItineraryTo make you plan your experience with as much ease as possible
AI doesn’t just manage logistics — it plans full trips!
Bennett, the traveler, used ChatGPT to plan her Hawaii trip. She entered her bucket list destinations on an Apple Map guide, then shared it with the AI tool.
“It made me a whole day-by-day plan,” Bennett said. “I’m going to use it as a trail and add other stops along the way.”

Google Gemini: Your AI Travel Sidekick
Google Gemini, their ‘Personalized AI Assistant’ will seamlessly book flights and make recommendations for things to do, making life easier for travelers.
“You can tell Gemini to search for flights in your price range, show you YouTube videos of the place you’re going to, and give you ideas of what to do when you’re there,” said Sarah Armstrong, a Google Technology Expert.
And Gemini announced Gems — customized AI assistants that learn your likes and dislikes and do your bidding.
“I shop with my shopping Gem and plan travel with my travel Gem. It keeps track of what I prefer to use, so I don’t have to retrace my steps every time,” Armstrong said.
Miso: A (Pay)Travel Agent In Your Pocket
For those who crave total hands-off automation, Miso, an AI travel booking platform, does one even better.
Forget searching and booking flights on your own, simply replicate the conversation via a text message with Miso — and it does the work for you!
“It’s like bringing a travel agent in your pocket,” Miso Founder Martin Mrozowski said. “We track the best deals, automatically make bookings — and if your flight is canceled or delayed, we deal with the headaches for you,” the company’s marketing material claims.
Miso saves commonly used details — including your frequent flyer number, TSA pre-check details, and your personal preferences for travel — to help speed things along when it comes to booking.
Even better, Miso also negotiates directly with airlines for refunds or claims — sparing you those maddening customer service calls.
A Quick Word of Caution
However the potential of using AI to plan your vacation is very large, so for now it’s a good idea to be sure to fact check any information received. Even the best AI tools can still sometimes fail to attend to details or make small errors.
