When considering the out-of-the-box experience of the app and site, there was much discussion around planning a trip versus being on one. "Where to?" was universal and translatable enough to cover both cases in over 30 countries.
Travelers could use the geo-pill at any point to search for a destination, jump to a recently-viewed destination, or see what's nearby.

In proposing new list navigations, our challenge was to use consistent UI patterns across list types while addressing each product group’s needs. Date-scoping was a constant need, so we identified variable booking needs for each group—restaurant reservations needed a single date, time, and guest count, while booking a hotel required a date range, room count, and guest count.
Across groups, easy access to filters and a map view persisted.
