We are happy to announce our latest TripBuilder release. Please see these release notes for the most significant changes. Let us know if you have any questions, feedback, or ideas for features or improvements!

Discovery API exposes on-request

The POST /discovery/v1.0/trips/{id}/allotment-info endpoint now exposes whether available units come from an on-request overbook pool. A new optional isOnRequest field appears in the Open status - present and true only when units are on-request; absent for regular guaranteed availability. Existing integrations require no changes, and the field is only present when relevant.

Activity Search in Smart Planner

A search input is now available in the activities drawer, letting users filter by activity name or keyword in real-time. Search is debounced and works alongside existing filters using AND logic - results narrow as you type. An empty state is shown when no activities match the search term, making it clear when to adjust the query.

Hotel Drawer Search Fallback

The hotel drawer now shows a standard text search input when NLQ (AI-powered natural language search) is disabled - previously no search was available in that case.

A single setting controls both modes: enabled → AI/NLQ search with suggestions; disabled → standard debounced text search. Consistent experience across the hotel drawer and the Smart Planner modal - search is always accessible regardless of NLQ status.

Insurance description and supplier confirmation number visible in Customer Care

Customer Care now displays two previously missing fields in the insurance table: the insurance description and supplier confirmation number. These values were already present in the checkout API response but were not mapped through to the UI.

The description field from the insurance API response now populates the description column in the insurance table and the supplier confirmation number now appears in the supplier column alongside the supplier name.

Accommodations Connect API - configurable price variation tolerance

The Accommodations Connect API now supports a maximum price variation tolerance on booking requests. The tolerance is expressed as a percentage of the sales price and can be configured per supplier by our customer operations team - giving each customer control over how much price deviation is acceptable.

Without a tolerance, some suppliers would reject bookings whenever their price had shifted - even by a small amount. By including the configured tolerance in the booking request, it is now possible to tell the supplier how much price variation is acceptable on behalf of our customer, allowing them to confirm bookings that would otherwise fail. For more information feel free to check our Accommodations Connect API documentation.
