In this episode of the Vacation Rental Scale-Up Podcast, we explore Expedia’s new AI Trip Matching feature, a tool that lets travelers send a Reel to Expedia’s Instagram and instantly receive:
💬 Personalized itineraries
🏨 Real-time hotel listings with prices & reviews
📍 Hidden gem suggestions
It’s not full booking (yet), but it’s a powerful bridge between inspiration and action — where travel discovery now begins in feeds, not search bars.
For property managers, this marks a major shift in guest visibility. Your next booking could start in a Reel before a traveler ever visits an OTA.
