Very good work
suggestion: make sure abbreviations (like 'NYC' for 'New York City') work in the destination search

Really appreciate you taking the time—means a lot. I also noticed some airport codes don't work. The limitation is actually the destination names API here which is frustrating. Next iteration will try and solve this issue.
Slow dev server, no VC cash, no hype—just me + caffeine, so thanks for your patience. Every “painfully’ slow search helps improve speed.
What it does:
- Unlocks hidden rates (AAA, Costco, double points, etc.)
- Summarizes hotel reviews using AI so you don’t have to doomscroll.
- Gives you BONV points (aka tokens you can spend on hotel bookings).
- Travel agents get 10% commissions (most OTAs give you like... 6%)
Up Next (maybe): Flights, rental cars, tours, cruises—and an AI agent to help you plan and book entire trips.
Heads up: It’s live. If you’re just testing it out, pick refundable rates or risk paying real money. You’ve been warned.
Would love any feedback—design, bugs, broken links, wish list features, whatever.
Appreciate you. Much love to HN!
