Travelocity has introduced a new offering for consumers to find the best travel deals based on their preferences and flexibility.

The toolkit, Deals Toolkit, offers three new ways to look for deals, including:

  • An on-site tool that walks through a customer’s preferences and returns the best deals, customised for them
  • A tool that shows the best deals on a map, and
  • A tool that can be downloaded onto a customer’s desktop and feeds deal updates

    • The tools quickly pinpoint the best flight and vacation packages listed on the site. It has been built on a proprietary algorithm developed by Travelocity.

    The customised deals engine, which can be accessed directly on the Travel Deals and “My Deals” tabs on Travelocity’s homepage, is a one-stop-shop for the site’s best flight and package deals. It features several filters allowing customers to personalise and sort deals by price, date range, theme, destination and travel product.

    Shoppers can view and compare up to five deals at a time and also explore more specific trip details, including available travel dates, customer reviews and more, narrowing down deals by what's most important to them.

    The desktop application gives consumers direct access to the best vacation package deals without using a browser while tracking the customer's preferred information for a completely personalised shopping experience. It is available for both Mac and Windows users.
