Took Booking Off the Phone, Made Discovery Personal

A booking flow that had to leave the phone behind

Travel & HospitalityiOS & Android

A tourism app so visitors could book in-app instead of calling the front desk. The home feed matches the trip they came for.

If reception didn't pick up, the booking was gone.

What we found

People found stays and activities online, then called to book. Reception missed a lot of those calls.

What this page covers

The client left after handoff, before development. No live data. Just the reasoning, and what I would've measured.

Two problems

Booking lived on a phone call

Explore happened on the web. Book happened only if someone answered. Missed call, lost booking.

Same home for every trip

A golf trip and a family weekend need different homes. One feed meant most of what people saw wasn't for them.

Flow before screens

I mapped signup, how many questions, where skip lives, and what home does with those answers.

  1. Guest mode sits next to social and email signup. An account shouldn't block a look around.
  2. The quiz is chips, not a form. Golf and food can both be true.
  3. Skip exists. It's just not the default.

I went straight to high-fidelity. A wireframe pass first would've been cheaper.

Five questions

Purpose, destinations, activities, stay, interests. Each step is chips with a min and a max. Enough to personalize, not so many that the answers blur.

After onboarding

Home follows the answers

Hero, bookings, stories, dining, activities, Plan Your Stay. They all shift off onboarding. If home didn't change, the quiz was just friction.

What I'd have measured

The metric we agreed on

In-app activity bookings vs. bookings that used to need a phone call.

No made-up conversion number. I don't have it. Engagement ended before development.

My role

Solo product designer. Engagement ended at handoff.

What I'd do differently

  1. I'd do a low-fi pass first. Some chip details got over-designed because the structure wasn't locked.
  2. Log drop-off early, so if a client leaves mid-project there's still a number to talk about.

Discovery project. Client requirements, my design work. Ended after high-fidelity handoff, before development.
