In this session we’ll describe the Travel Management Lifecycle, and identify the stages where we can further help and enrich our customers experience. We will illustrate how current capabilities of the Web can deliver against this goal. This will be illustrated through examples from easyJet and how Multimap uses user-generated content to improve services for customers including Lastminute.com. Delivering an intuitive customer experience that's also pleasing to use is not simple, and so we'll also talk about the process used to get there.
