Travel is inherently personal, but for many companies individualized service can be difficult to scale. Done well, AI agents can close that gap – helping customers find the right hotel or destination, supporting them after they book, and responding immediately when delays, cancellations, or other unexpected events disrupt their plans.
Delivering that experience requires the AI agent to move beyond providing information to actually solving problems and completing tasks on the customer's behalf. Its value comes from understanding what the customer is trying to accomplish, remembering relevant context, drawing from trusted information and knowing when a human should step in.
Des Traynor, Co-founder and Chief Strategy Officer at Fin, has spent the past three years building and deploying Fin, an AI agent that can work across the entire customer journey. In this conversation, Des will explore how travel companies can leverage their existing data and content base, expand their support operations without sacrificing quality, and deliver experiences that feel genuinely personal at scale.
