Plan a family trip and pre-fill bookings
A reporter had ChatGPT Agent plan a 4-day San Diego trip: it searched flights, compared hotels, built an itinerary and pre-filled booking forms, stopping before purchase.
Done withChatGPT Agent
- What they did
- The reporter asked ChatGPT Agent to plan a 4-day family trip to San Diego from Newark, with pool hotels and activities for kids under 10, and to save an itinerary in Google Docs. The agent searched Google Flights, compared kid-friendly hotels, and listed attractions such as the zoo and LEGOLAND. It then wrote a daily itinerary with booking links and pre-filled the booking forms.
- How it went
- The itinerary and comparisons came out well, and the reporter called it an incredible planning tool. The agent did not buy anything. She had to confirm bookings herself and says she wouldn't trust AI with that step.
- Worth knowing
- Her computer crashed before this task and she had to log back in and start over, so expect to restart now and then. Booking always needs your own approval.
