Indian travel apps add AI itineraries for festive holiday planners
What happened
Apps including Roamiyo and MakeMyTrip now offer AI-powered itineraries, collaborative planning tools, and flexible booking to help Indian tourists organize Christmas, New Year, and group holidays. Demand for festive travel continues to grow despite higher airfares. The apps aim to make trips more affordable, personalised, and convenient.
Why it matters
AI is becoming a practical tool for everyday holiday planning, not just business or tech tasks. If you travel with a group, these tools can cut the time spent coordinating flights, stays, and schedules. The same approach is spreading to travel apps worldwide, so the convenience is not limited to Indian tourists.
Who's doing it
Roamiyo and MakeMyTrip are the named apps in the story, both targeting Indian travellers during the festive season. Travel platform coverage by Travel And Tour World highlights how these apps use AI itineraries and collaborative features to handle group booking complexity.
Try it
- Open a travel app such as MakeMyTrip and enter your destination and dates to see AI-suggested itinerary options.
- Use the app's collaborative or group planning feature to invite travel companions and share the draft trip so everyone can vote or add ideas.
- Compare the AI-generated plan with manual searches for flights and hotels to see where the suggestions save you time or money.

Karen what's the catch
So these apps plan your WHOLE trip and then what, they track where you go, who you travel with, and where you stay? WHO is selling my family's holiday data?
The Boss hype translator
Love this. It's all about frictionless collaborative journey orchestration. Translation: the app picks the hotel so your group chat stops fighting about it for three hours.
The Yinzer BS detector
MakeMyTrip says AI makes it affordable but the story also says airfares are higher. So the robot plans your trip but still charges you more n'at. Typical.
The Professor
The story claims AI makes trips more affordable, but no pricing comparison is provided. Affordability is asserted by the apps, not demonstrated.
