Online Travel Agency

Deal Engine

A production flight inventory contained many prices but no consistent way to rank relative value by route, timing, and historical context.

The Problem

Raw price alone did not show whether a flight was unusually competitive for its route and travel context. The merchandising team needed a consistent ranking instead of selecting from a large inventory by hand.

What I Built

While employed by the travel business, I built a system that analyzed live inventory against route, timing, and historical pricing context. It produced a continuously refreshed ranking that other product surfaces could use to select deal candidates.

The Outcome

Verified technical result: the system generated a continuously refreshed ranked feed for production use. No conversion or revenue lift is claimed here because those business metrics are not available for public verification.
