Smart Travel Package Finder: Search Flights & Hotels with Skyscanner-Booking.com

Introduction

Automates travel itinerary creation by searching flights and hotels via APIs, then uses AI to generate personalized recommendations delivered as HTML emails through Gmail.

How It Works

Webhook receives travel requests, searches Skyscanner and Booking.com APIs in parallel, merges results, uses AI to create optimized itineraries, formats as HTML email, sends via Gmail.

Workflow Template

Webhook → Parse & Validate → Parallel Searches (Flights: Skyscanner | Hotels: Booking.com) → Merge Data → AI Generate Itinerary → Format HTML Email → Send Gmail → Webhook Response

Workflow Steps

1. Trigger & Validate: Webhook receives request, extracts destination/dates/budget/preferences, validates data, converts to API parameters.
2. Parallel Search: Skyscanner fetches flights with price/duration/airline. Booking.com retrieves hotels with ratings/pricing. Merge combines both into single JSON object.
3. AI Generation: AI analyzes merged data, evaluates by price/duration/rating, creates itinerary with daily schedule, pairings, costs, and rankings.
4. Delivery: Converts JSON to HTML email with tables and booking links. Gmail sends email. Webhook confirms success.
