Skyscanner’s flight search is now available in beta for customers using Open AI’s Chat GPT plug-in services. 

Powered by Skyscanner’s Travel API, the integration allows travellers to make fast and accurate flight search queries.

Results are uniquely organised into ‘Fastest’, ‘Cheapest’, and ‘Best’ categories.

The beta phase enables Skyscanner to gather feedback and conversion data to optimise the integration going forward.

“Chat GPT and related AI are going to have a massive impact on travel. The companies that will do well are the ones that pay attention to data quality,” said co-founder and former CEO, Gareth Williams.

Meanwhile, Ctrip owned Skyscanner has marked its 20th anniversary.

The business was established In 2003 in Edinburgh.

Williams joined current CEO John Mangelaars in a video to mark the anniversary

They discussed new technology including the AI plug-in and the future of travel.
