\n Booking.com\u2019s David Adamczyk on vibes, AI, and next steps for the connected trip | WiT Studio <\/p>\n
What happens when you move from building Booking.com\u2019s rides product to leading its core accommodations business? For David Adamczyk, Vice President of Product at Booking.com, it\u2019s about bringing a \u201ctrip-first mindset\u201d \u2013 starting with the traveller\u2019s entire journey rather than one booking at a time. How does that perspective reshape how teams think about design, partner relationships, and the way users actually plan trips?<\/strong><\/p>\n The holy grail for Booking.com \u2013 and the travel industry at large \u2013 is the connected trip: a seamless, end-to-end experience that ties together flights, stays, rides, and attractions. But how do you make that work when every vertical has its own data standards and quirks? How can AI and user experience design come together to solve what David calls the \u201cspreadsheet problem\u201d \u2013 that chaotic maze of tabs and comparisons travellers still juggle when planning trips?<\/p>\n And what about the future \u2013 how will Booking.com stay relevant as AI transforms the very way people search, plan, and book? David talks about the company\u2019s focus on ease and trust, the next wave of AI-driven comparison tools, and the rise of \u201cvibe-based\u201d travel \u2013 where users search for feelings, not destinations. So how is Booking.com preparing for travellers who\u2019ll soon expect to talk, type, or tap their way to personalised, human-like trip planning?<\/p>\n Watch the full interview to find out.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Booking.com\u2019s David Adamczyk on vibes, AI, and next steps for the connected trip | WiT Studio What happens…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":176204,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[74],"tags":[18,19,17,82],"class_list":{"0":"post-176203","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-technology","8":"tag-eire","9":"tag-ie","10":"tag-ireland","11":"tag-technology"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@ie\/115535099034846276","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/176203","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=176203"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/176203\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/176204"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=176203"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=176203"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=176203"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
