Google has modified the Travel section within its own search engine, so that those about to go on a trip can quickly book both plane tickets and accommodation.
The new feature is available on the mobile version of Google and benefits from a new interface, organized into tabs.
A simple Google search for a city or a city name followed by words such as „accommodation”, „hotel”, „flight” etc. can lead to the travel section of the search engine.
Here, one can navigate through one of the four tabs allocated to specific functions. Besides Explore, which displays general information, and Your Trips, which allows planning a future visit, from the Flights and Hotels tabs, plane seats and hotel rooms can be searched and booked respectively.
