Ideas to concept : Travel system
15 Issue – Travel booking
- Do you want nonstop flights or are you prepared to accept one (or two or more) stopovers if it will save you money
- Which Los Angeles area airport is most convenient for you to travel from, and which other ones would you also consider using
- Would you be prepared to fly to an airport close to Hartford and then drive a distance so as to save money
- At what time of day do you want to leave and arrive
- Is there a special event that you must be present in Hartford to attend, and if so, when is that event (maybe she will then recommend you change your travel plans and travel earlier, or choose a flight that is more reliable for ontime arrivals)
- Are you able to travel a day earlier or later if it will save you money
- Are you able to accept a restricted fare or might you need to buy a more expensive fare so as to be able to more easily make changes later
- What is your preferred airline, what other airlines will you also consider, and are there any airlines you refuse to travel on
- Are you going to attend any type of convention or other meeting that might have special fares available
- What are your frequent flier numbers, and, if there is a choice, which airline programs do you prefer to use to get credit first
- Do you have any seating preferences
- Do you have any dietary needs
- How will you pay for the fare and when
- Are there any other factors that she needs to know in order to best arrange your travels
- Do you also need a rental car (lots more questions will follow if you say yes) and accommodation (again, lots more questions) or a limo transfer or are there any other associated travel needs you might haveCredit
