KAYAK

Booking business travel should be as easy as booking personal travel. That’s the idea behind KAYAK for Business — and why we’re partnering with Blockskye and FCM Travel to create a more seamless corporate travel experience. Together we're combining KAYAK’s trusted booking experience with Blockskye’s payment flexibility and expense automation, and FCM Travel’s global service footprint.

This week we launched our Summer Travel Report, packed with insights on where Americans are headed, how search habits are shifting, and where travelers can still find solid value: https://lnkd.in/eUeqsk7H We’re on a mission to help people travel this summer - despite headlines about rising prices, there are still places to go, experiences to be had and memories to make, that won’t break the bank. Spoiler alert: Destinations like NYC, LA, Las Vegas, and Denver are among some of the most searched spots right now. Get the scoop on the report 👇

Travel planning just got a lot more conversational. Today, KAYAK introduced Ask AI — a new way to search, compare, and book trips by simply chatting. Instead of jumping between filters and tabs, travelers can start with a question and watch real-time flight, hotel, and rental car options update alongside the conversation. It’s the ease of AI, combined with the power of a traditional results page — all in one place. Just in time for a summer of travel (and the #WorldCup ahead), Ask AI is designed to make planning faster, more personal, and a lot less work. Try it out and tell us what you think: https://www.kayak.com/

Airfare prices are having a moment – and we saw a chance to make sense of it. So we built the Airfare Trends Dashboard, giving travelers a clear, weekly look at how flight prices are actually moving based on KAYAK search data. It’s a straightforward way to turn real-time insights into something useful – for both travelers and the travel industry.

Great leadership doesn’t just happen – we build it. When leaders know how to set the vision, drive strategy and bring teams with them, the impact is real: stronger teams, smarter decisions, better results. That’s why KAYAK keeps investing in our leaders. In March, we launched the fourth Director+ Development Program in Berlin – a 4-month experience designed to push, challenge and inspire. The highlight? A week-long, hands-on session where leaders closed their laptops and focused on what matters most: how they lead, connect and grow. Congratulations to our next group of dedicated leaders: Ashley Battesh, Atul Joshi, PhD, Elena Ponti, H. Gürhan K., Jesse James Woods, Katharine Glynn, Krista Caruso, leah choi, Marius Kričena, Mike Scopino, Modestas Kapusinskas, Rachel Mumford, Ramunas Klimavicius, Rebecca Hansen, Suzanne Costello, Thomas Løjmann Jørgensen, Vitalijus Bogomolovas, Yvonne Bonanati. A special thanks to KAYAK's Learning & Development Manager Angela Van Buren, and our partners at Coverdale OD Limited: Verena Stresing, Marie Erbacher and Mark Jenkins. #team #leadership #leadershipdevelopment #worklife

Corporate travel is overdue for a rethink – and we’re not waiting around. Hear Florian Mueller, Head of Commercial at KAYAK for Business break down how we’re reshaping corporate travel from the inside out on the Corporate Insights Podcast: https://lnkd.in/e_XAU4gE

This morning we celebrated International Women’s Month with an internal “Give to Gain” panel featuring Kate Williams, Carolina (Cueto) Montenegro, Tori Brown Rezendes, Eva Fouquet, and Christina Dalonzo. From the impact of mentorship to the reminder that “I’m here for a reason and for the right reasons,” the conversation reinforced that creating cultures of openness - not perfection - is what truly helps people grow. #InternationalWomensMonth #GiveToGain #WomenInLeadership

Travelers want choice and price transparency to make confident decisions.🤝 Our new integration of HomeToGo's inventory expands our holiday rental supply and enables immediate booking with a major provider in the industry 🚀

You’re about to book a flight. And then, almost instinctively, you start the search again. Did the price drop? Is there a better departure time? A better airline? The spiral is real. We’re here to stop it. Today, we’re launching “Got That Right.” A new platform and tagline inspired by solving the stress and second-guessing that comes with planning a trip. Because when you search and compare your options all in one place on KAYAK, you can book with confidence. Not because you hoped it was the best choice. Because you saw that it was. Keep your eyes on your screens, big and small, for the new campaign. Here’s to fewer doubts and more "got that right." https://lnkd.in/ehT5iKVv

How should travel companies structure AI leadership — under a Chief AI Officer or a CTO? At KAYAK, we don’t see AI as a separate lane. It’s built into how we work. In a new PhocusWire piece, KAYAK CTO Yaron Zeidman shares why we’ve embedded AI across our technology organization instead of siloing it. Because smarter travel decisions don’t come from one team – they come from AI working hand in hand with data, infrastructure and UI.🤝 Read more ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/eh3-q9ec
