Find the perfect destination with free-text prompts.

Attributional Bookings & AI open up entirely new dimensions in booking.

It sounds like a pipe dream, but it’s increasingly becoming a reality: Instead of using various filters to narrow down their search for the best travel destination, guests are already using free-text prompts to find their ideal destination—prompts that sound something like this: "I’m looking for a place to stay with a pool for 2 adults, 1 child (age 3), and our dog. It’s important to have a large yard, be close to the ocean, offer breakfast service, and have Netflix."

What guest would want to click through long lists of filters and selection criteria when searching for the right vacation destination, when all they have to do is express their preferences? AI-powered technologies are revolutionizing traditional travel booking. Stefan Grimm’s keynote address will shed light on the resulting requirements, using the personalized offers on HomeToGo as an example.

What do Attributional Bookings mean for tourism destinations?

How must offers be designed so that they can be included in hyper-personalized selections? DMOs must also ensure that even the most complex inquiries do not go unanswered: Even a search for "Four days' vacation in the countryside for 2 adults and our 3-year-old child. Mom wants to climb, Dad wants to go to a museum, and nearby we absolutely need playgrounds and delicious ice cream parlors!" should lead to a tailor-made, inspiring, and bookable offer.

In the "Attributional Bookings" session, we want to explore how this transformation can look in practice and what opportunities arise for destinations. Personalized travel creates genuine, user-centric experiences that truly meet the diverse and individual needs of guests. Join us and help shape the future of personalized travel!
