KAYAK.ai Release Notes
The latest and greatest improvements to our product
May 28, 2025
New Features
- Car search: Looking to rent wheels for your next trip? KAYAK.ai now helps travelers search for rental cars based on specific dates and destinations. Fewer tabs, faster trips.
- Multi-theme destination searches: Got range? Now you can search for places that check multiple boxes – like a “romantic, foodie-focused getaway” or “outdoorsy, budget-friendly escape.” Perfect for indecisive planners and multi-hyphenate vacations.
- New feedback modal: We gave our feedback modal a glow-up. Now it’s easier to tell us what’s working – and what’s not – so we can make KAYAK.ai even smarter. (Yes, we read them. All of them.)
Fixes + Improvements
- Cheapest time to travel gets smarter: When we don’t have enough data to show the cheapest time to book, we’ll now explain why – so you’re not left guessing.
- Source links for AI chat responses: When KAYAK.ai answers questions that don’t involve searching (aka the “chatty” ones), we now include links to our sources. Because transparency > mystery.

New Features
- Flight status: Want to know if your flight’s on time, delayed or just generally being dramatic? Ask KAYAK.ai. You can search by flight number, airline, airport or route – and skip the gate-side anxiety.
- Nonstop routes: Layovers are for lunatics. See every nonstop route from any airport and get inspired for your next destination… or at least your next daydream.
- Cheapest time to travel, now for Stays: KAYAK.ai now shows you when hotel prices are actually decent. Just pick a destination and we’ll surface the dates where your dollar goes the furthest.
- Text summaries: Too busy to scroll? We get it. Now, before we show you the full results, KAYAK.ai gives you a quick-hit summary of what’s in store. It’s like speed dating for travel deals.
Fixes + Improvements
- We squashed some post-launch bugs. RIP to weird glitches 👋
- Cheapest time to travel widgets (for flights and stays) now come with shiny new CTA buttons. Because knowing when to go is great – but booking it? That’s where the magic happens.
