Lina.ai — AI-Powered Flight Booking App

The Problem

Flight booking using traditional methods is exhausting. Users have to search for flights to every destination individually, compare prices across multiple tabs, and navigate cluttered interfaces with poor UX. For frequent travelers, the process is repetitive and time-consuming — and most existing booking apps haven't evolved beyond the basic search-and-filter model.

The Solution

Lina.ai is an AI-powered flight booking mobile app that lets travelers book flights, hotels, and resort destinations with just a single prompt. Instead of manually searching and comparing, users describe what they're looking for and the AI handles the rest — surfacing the best options, comparing prices, and even rebooking past flights.
The goal was to strip away the friction of traditional booking and replace it with a conversational, intelligent experience that feels effortless.

My Process

1. Research & Discovery

I worked with a client in the travel consultancy space to understand the pain points travelers face with existing booking platforms. Key frustrations included:
Too many steps to find and compare flights
Overwhelming interfaces with irrelevant information
No easy way to rebook previous trips
Poor mobile experiences on legacy booking apps

2. Ideation & Information Architecture

I mapped out the core user flows — from onboarding to AI-powered search to booking confirmation — keeping the experience as minimal and intuitive as possible. Every screen had to earn its place.

3. Visual Design

I designed a clean, modern UI in Figma with a focus on simplicity and clarity. The AI search interface was designed to feel conversational, not technical — making it approachable for all types of travelers.

4. Prototyping

I built interactive prototypes to demonstrate the AI booking flow and validate the experience with the client before handoff.

Key Screens Designed

Onboarding screens
Sign in / Sign up
Home screen
AI-powered search screen (single prompt booking)
Flight results & comparison
Flight history screen (rebook past flights)
Recommended vacations screen
Booking success screen
User profile screen

The Outcome

The app didn't launch but stands as a modern AI flight booking concept that reimagines how travelers interact with booking platforms. The project demonstrated how AI can simplify a traditionally complex user flow into a single-prompt experience.

What I Learned

Designing for AI-driven interactions requires a different mindset than traditional UI. The challenge isn't adding more features — it's removing enough friction that the AI feels like a natural extension of the user's intent, not another layer of complexity.
