Book a flight with an AI agent (you pay)
“I want the AI to find and set up the booking, not just suggest flights.”
Browser agents can search, pick seats and fill traveler details, then hand you the payment page. Expect to enter security codes and payment yourself.
Fix it yourself in 3 steps
- Write your must-haves: dates, airports, times, airline, bags, seat preference, budget.
- Ask the agent to find options, show the top 3, and fill in the booking for the one you pick.
- Check names, dates and price on the final page, then pay yourself.
Copy this prompt
Find flights [from] to [to], leaving [date/time window], returning [date/time window], [nonstop?], max [price], [bags]. Show me the top 3 with total price including fees. After I pick one, fill in the booking up to the payment page and stop. Don't enter payment, security codes, or click purchase.
Fill in the [brackets]. Each prompt says when the AI should stop, so it doesn't wander off.
