Chatbots are capable of communications, which are human-like interactions, using artificial intelligence, machine learning, and natural language processing. They cater to the varying requirements of the traveler, from simplifying the bookings process to obtaining detailed feedback for further data management.

In the Indian Travel industry, dynamic government policies and the young demographic—about 1.6 billion local travelers—have continued to support growth of the technology in various platforms, for easier, quicker and inexpensive chatbot as a service (CaaS) solutions. The next generation e-ticketing system uses a chatbot, powered by artificial intelligence and machine learning; it is programmed to reply for more than millions of queries by passengers each day.

Chatbots record all the interactions and give reports that eliminate the necessity of customer executives to be available whenever a solution is required. The travel ecosystem needs a simple, hands-on, persuasive technology that can analyze problems, cater to the end-to-end needs of the travelers, such as insights on bookings and accommodation, along with check outs.
