In 2025, travelers use agents to plan trips end-to-end, approve flight and hotel purchases, and make restaurant reservations in chat, with prompts specifying budget, amenities, and walkability. Posts show hotel picks matching constraints (e.g., serious gym, walkable, under €300/night), airline bookings with seat selection, and itineraries with packing lists and visa rules; some users keep permissions minimal and want deeper Gmail, Wallet, Maps, and Flights access to reduce switching.

I just set a dinner reservation through Google’s $GOOGL A.I. agent. I didn’t even make a call, just picked the restaurant and time then got an email minutes later confirming it. I was SHOCKED… The future is here. 🫡
Despite the Gemini team training an excellent frontier model, I can't help but feel that Google is lacking direction on the AI product side. Why can't I give Gemini agentic access to my Gmail? Why can't it read my Google Docs to get the context it needs? Why can't I ask it to do data analysis in a Google Sheet? I should be able to ask Gemini to plan my vacation for me and it should be able to buy a flight on Google Flights (credit card info saved in Google Wallet), look up directions on Google Maps, cross-reference with my travel history via Gmail, and populate a Google Sheet with an itinerary. Unfortunately, Google has completely dropped the ball on giving Gemini the tools and context it needs to actually be useful. Instead, we get lazy, disconnected AI features like "help me write" or "chat with AI" in every single product. I truly feel that Google could do something special as the only AI company that natively has full context on the user's life. But for now it seems they lack the top-down product vision to make something great here.
I Let AI Agents Plan My Vacation and It Wasn't Terrible https://t.co/nJN6tNtQno @VickiTurk @wired
This shouldn't exist yet. I've tested @perplexity_ai 's travel search and booking and... No scrolling 847 hotels and photos trying to spot a decent gym, I asked: "Find me a hotel in Amsterdam with a serious gym, walkable to conference venues, under €300/night" Result: Perfect recommendation. The exact hotel I actually use.
𝐈𝐭’𝐬 𝐅𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐲. 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐞 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐟𝐮𝐧. Forget spreadsheets and strategy decks for a sec— 😎 Here are a few very real ways I’ve used #GenAI lately: 👉 Planned a 10-day solo trip to Greece with cliffside art galleries, without tourist mobs 👉 Mapped a New Zealand road trip that included waterfalls, thermal spas, and zero stress 👉 Got packing lists, visa rules, and local etiquette in one prompt 👉 Even reminded me to bring my cat-eye sunglasses (yes, seriously) 😎 Here are the actual prompts I used— and steal them for your next adventure.🚀 I told it things like: •“I have X days for this trip. I’m traveling solo. Give me safe, off-the-beaten-path places with great food, arts, and light adventure.” •“I hate packing and switching hotels every day. Give me 2–3 beautiful hubs with easy day trips around each.” •“Design a Greece itinerary with ruins by day, ouzo by sunset, and art galleries by night—no big cruises.” •“Plan a New Zealand road trip with waterfalls, thermal spas, filming spots from Lord of the Rings—and no crowds.” 𝐁e𝐜a𝐮s𝐞 𝐆e𝐧A𝐈 𝐢s𝐧’𝐭 𝐣u𝐬t f𝐨r w𝐨r𝐤. I𝐭’𝐬 𝐟o𝐫 𝐥i𝐟e. ⭐️ And sometimes, it’s better than your travel agent.😍 What destination should I prompt next? Drop it below—I’ll share mine.
