Useful technology emerges from clear decisions about context, responsibility and the way people work. Three considerations for travel technology.
Model the whole booking
Discovery, availability, payment and supplier confirmation are separate steps. Track each state so that a partial failure can be explained and recovered.

Connect the service team
Support staff need the booking timeline, integration status and permitted next actions. A good operations interface is part of the traveler experience.
Start with a workflow you can understand, observe and improve.
