Best Things to Do:
With These ChatGPT Prompts, Find the Cheapest Flights
AI has long been part of our everyday lives - and it's increasingly helping people with travel planning. We'll show you how to use the right ChatGPT prompts to find cheap flights.
It filters incoming emails, answers your questions, and suggests the next Netflix series: Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become indispensable in our daily lives. Even when it comes to vacations, ChatGPT and similar technologies play a significant role: 19 percent of German travelers already use AI for travel planning, according to the 'Future Travel Trends 2024' study by Marriott Bonvoy.
And according to a recent YouGov survey, almost two-thirds of Germans can imagine doing so. For the AI-open target group, recommendations for activities and sights, communication assistance, or translations at the vacation spot, as well as creating an individual travel plan, are of interest.
Interestingly, using AI apps to find the cheapest flights for vacations is not a topic for the respondents. Yet, it's not that difficult! We'll show you how to save during vacation planning with the right ChatGPT prompts.
The Best ChatGPT Prompts to Book Flights
Searching through countless websites for the best flight deals and savings prices isn't necessary: AI apps like ChatGPT can save you a lot of time.
If you're feeling a sudden wanderlust but have no idea where to go, you can use the following prompt:
- Where is the cheapest place to fly to in [month] from [your departure airport]?
- What are the cheapest live rates from [your departure airport] in [month]?
If you have a specific destination in mind because you want to take a hot air balloon ride in Cappadocia or experience the Indian Summer in Canada, these prompts can help:
- Name the cheapest month for a vacation to [destination].
- On which days of the week is a flight to [destination] cheapest?
- Which airport is cheapest for flights from [your location] to [destination]?
- Find the cheapest round-trip flights from [your location] to [destination] between [month] and [month], including lesser-known airports and budget airlines.
- Find the best round-trip flight from [your departure airport] to [destination], any departure date in [month/period], for [duration of stay].
If you have more than one destination on your bucket list and want to visit several cities, you can also ask ChatGPT to find multi-city flights or a sensible travel route for you. Here are the following prompts:
- What is the cheapest way to visit [Destination 1], [Destination 2], and [Destination 3]?
- Show me the currently cheapest multi-city flights from [your location] to [Destination 1] and back from [Destination 2].
How to Get Good Results When Searching for Flights with ChatGPT
The clearer you are, the better ChatGPT can help you. State exactly what you are looking for: Do you want a round-trip flight or just one way? Should the flight be nonstop, or is a layover okay? You can even specify which airlines you prefer - or absolutely want to avoid. The more information you provide, the more fitting the result will be.
If it doesn't work out the first time, ask again. Specify what's missing in the search results and provide more details. For example: 'I'm looking for a flight from Berlin to Rome, flexible in July, for five to seven days. Please include current prices.' If the best price comes up, but the date is missing, ask for it specifically. ChatGPT can provide you with a table of airlines, prices, connections, and layover details.
