Handle hotel booking and directions on a business trip
On a messy international work trip, Gemini picked a policy-compliant last-minute Heathrow layover hotel and walked someone from gate through immigration and trains, later navigating them to a Swiss venue from landmark descriptions. A few fabrications showed up but were caught.
Trips involve lots of searching, forms and waiting on hold. This is an example of an agent handling that busywork so the traveller only has to approve the result. It is one of 63 sightings filed under Travel & Booking on Agent Sightings (number 49 by interest), and one of 14 involving Gemini.
How you could try it
Here is a reusable prompt, written by us in our own words, that captures the task. Paste it into Gemini or any similar agent and adjust the details to your situation.
Given my company travel policy and tonight's constraints, shortlist compliant hotels near this layover, then give gate-to-hotel walking directions. Do not book or pay until I confirm.
Tip: Have the agent list options with prices and cancellation rules, and only book once you have said yes to one.
