Literature Review
2.1 Survey existing system
 A Cross-Service Travel Engine for Trip Planning
The online travel services and resources are far from well organized and integrated.
Trip planning is still a laborious job requiring interaction with a combination of
services such as travel guides, personal travel blogs, map services and public
transportation to piece together an itinerary. To facilitate this process, we have
designed a cross-service travel engine for trip planners. Our system seamlessly and
semantically integrates various types of travel services and resources based on a
geographical ontology. We also built a user-friendly visualization tool for travellers
to conveniently browse and design personal itineraries on Google Maps

 Online Travel Service System

Online Travel Service System programming is an all around deployable, incorporated,
work process based end-to-end framework beginning from seeking transport
courses to book them on the web. This is an entire application for voyagers and
additionally Customers. Merchants give the data like, accessible courses, timings,
cost, and so forth. Clients can book a ticket which is a five stage process that
incorporates Search Bus, Select Bus, Select Seats, Provide Customer Information
and Make Payment. This application likewise gives office to drop a booked ticket
on the web. There is likewise extension to gauge the client fulfillment in regards to
the whole reserving process. He can express his perspectives or grievances
through tribute choice in the application with the goal that it mirrors the generosity
of the movement organization and encourages different clients to have confided in
the organization.

 Design of a novel management system of web multimedia travel plans

The use of Internet based applications as an instructional tool in e-tourism is rapidly
expanding. Nowadays, there is an increase in the development of attraction and
accommodation websites with huge amounts of tourist material embedded within
them. However, there is not a generic, dynamic and flexible architecture regarding
the management of web attractions and accommodations by tourist agents. This
occurs due to the lack of any type of standardization. Moreover, there is little
empirical evidence regarding the actual use of the above mentioned web contents
by e-tourists. We designed a novel web management system of multimedia travel
plans, in order for web multimedia travel plans to become manageable, effective
and adaptive to the e- tourists’ needs. The new system is based on a best-effort
architecture and includes a web log analysis module to evaluate how online
contents are being consumed and to identify the individual differences among e-
tourists in terms of content usage and the amount of content that are presented in a
web-supported multimedia travel plan. The proposed web management system
provides services such as: creation, presentation, modification, deletion and indirect
evaluation of multimedia travel plans. In addition, it supports e-tourist patterns
interpretation regarding their navigation habits to web travel plans

  Tourist Destination Management
Tourism development has environmental and social consequences upon local and global
communities. The impact of tourism must be kept within certain limits which are set up by
sustainable tourism. Meanwhile the viability of the investment must be assured. Tourism
development matrix is the tourist destination. Destination management must ensure the
balance between economic, social, cultural, and environmental activities. Competitive
destination management organization means a harmonious combination between planning,
lobby, coordination.

11
2.2 Limitation existing system or Research gap
o User Experience Issues: Many travel management websites have complex
interfaces that can hinder user navigation and overall satisfaction.

o Integration Challenges: Existing systems often struggle to integrate with other

essential tools, such as expense management software and communication platforms,
leading to fragmented processes.

o Customization Limitations: Few websites offer the flexibility needed for organizations
to tailor functionalities according to their specific travel policies and needs.

o Data Analytics Shortcomings: Many systems provide basic reporting features but lack
advanced analytics that could help organizations derive deeper insights from travel data.

o Mobile Functionality: A significant gap exists in mobile support, with many websites
not offering full-featured mobile applications, limiting user accessibility on the go.

o Real-Time Updates: Existing systems frequently do not provide real-time information

on travel arrangements, such as flight statuses or availability, impacting decision- making.

o Security Concerns: Some travel management websites may not fully comply with data
protection regulations, posing risks to sensitive user information.

o Limited User Feedback Mechanisms: There is often a lack of robust systems for
collecting and implementing user feedback, which could improve usability and features
over time.

o Scalability Issues: As organizations grow, many existing systems do not scale

effectively, leading to performance bottlenecks or the need for expensive upgrades.

(city, date, price, etc.)..

 User Input

 User Query: The user inputs travel details such as:

o Departure location (city or airport)
o Destination
o Travel dates
o Number of passengers
o Travel class (Economy, Business, etc.)
o Hotel preferences (if applicable)
o Car rental preferences (if applicable)
 Input Validation

 Sanitize Input: Check the input for any errors or invalid entries (e.g., missing fields,
incorrect dates).
 Correct Format: Ensure that the dates, locations, and other inputs are in the correct
format.
 Search Criteria Identification

 Keyword Extraction: Extract relevant keywords and parameters from the input such as
location, dates, and specific travel preferences.
 User Preferences (if logged in): Check saved preferences (such as preferred airlines or
hotel chains) and use them to modify or prioritize search results.

2. Linear Search Algorithm

The linear search algorithm, also known as sequential search, is one of the simplest and
most straightforward searching algorithms used in computer science. Its primary function
is to locate a specific element within a collection, such as an array or list, by checking each
element in sequence until the target element is found or the end of the collection is
reached.
The linear search operates on a basic principle: it examines each element in the list one by
one. The algorithm starts at the beginning of the array or list and compares the target
value with each element in turn. If a match is found, the algorithm returns the index of the
element. If the end of the list is reached without finding the target, it indicates that the
target is not present in the list.
*Algorithm Steps:*

1. Start from the first element in the list.

2. Compare the current element with the target value.

3. If they match, return the index of the current element.

4. If they don’t match, move to the next element and repeat steps 2-3.

5. If the end of the list is reached and no match is found, return an indication that the target
is not present (e.g., -1).

The linear search algorithm is easy to understand and implement. Unlike other search
algorithms, linear search does not require the list to be sorted, making it applicable in
various scenarios where sorting may not be feasible. It can be applied to any data
structure that supports sequential access, including arrays, linked lists, and even files.

Linear search is used in various real-world applications, particularly in situations where

the dataset is small or unsorted. Some common use cases include :Searching for an
element in a list of items, such as a shopping cart or a small database; Implementing basic
search functions in educational or introductory programming environments. Simple
applications where the overhead of sorting or using more complex search algorithms is
unnecessary.
