Digital travel platform Agoda has unveiled a series of new features designed for smarter trip planning, including real-time flight visibility, an enhanced hotel browser, and AI-powered property search tools.
Ittai Chorev, chief product officer at Agoda, said: “Travel is always a little stressful, so having the right information at the right time is both useful and reduces stress. Whether that means seeing the reviews that matter to you alongside relevant images when booking a hotel, or knowing your gate number before even reaching the airport when booking a flight, these updates help travellers make better decisions at every step of their journey.”
Smarter trip management
Travellers booking flights through Agoda on iOS and Android can now receive automatic updates on flight status, gate and terminal information, check-in counters, and baggage carousels.
Those booking hotels on the platform can use Gallery View in Agoda’s iOS app, which offers an engaging visual way to explore search results. Additionally, a new AI-powered feature pairs hotel images with relevant guest reviews.
Agoda also expanded its language support for Flights-related chat queries to include Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Thai, Indonesian, and Hong Kong-based users.
Agoda also enables booking hotels, flights, and activities in a single transaction, with all trip components consolidated in the ‘My Trips’ section of the app and website.
