I love traveling, and also enjoy planning for it. But I do often find that searching many different sites with basic filters becomes quite
cumbersome. I had the idea of adding more advanced features to be able
to better pinpoint what exactly the best option would be for each person
specifically. It initially started with Flixbus having no "what is the
cheapest connection somewhere in May" feature, like Google Flight does
have. But I wanted to add more things. I have added that you can add how
much it's worth for you to travel an hour less, or a transfer less, or
not arrive/depart in the middle of the night. This will then be taken
into account when sorting what is the best connection instead of the cheapest.
It also already has a search for Flixbus on what the best connection is
in a range of dates, and what the best connection is from a place to
any place in the desired country. I want to add too that it takes
hostel/hotel prices into account, so that you can say you want to go
from Berlin to anywhere in Czechia, for 4 days, and it actually gives
you the complete best route to a city with a cheap hostel too. I would
love to add more things and am very curious about desires from other
travelers for a tool like this, so what do you think and would you like
to add?
Would this for you include accomodation? And do you think you'd prefer a lot of control over that or just a general view? Like a searchpage that has a budget, a starting location and a departure and return date. This would return only the places where the train/bus/flight + hostel/hotel would fit in the budget.
