## Book a flight

Travelers begin with a single search that captures route, dates, trip type, bags, party size, and cabin. Results separate outbound and return choices into two focused steps, keep the itinerary visible, and surface fare and travel-credit value together. A final review brings flights, fare, seat selection, credits, taxes, and total cost into one place before booking.

## Book a stay

Travelers start with destination, dates, and party size, then move through a visual hotel grid or map-backed list to understand both the property and its location. After selecting a hotel, room cards make amenities, views, ratings, nightly price, and travel credit easy to compare. The final review gathers the property, room, dates, guests, credits, taxes, and total cost into one editable summary.
