Use an agent to prep travel bookings with review stops
They had Dots organize a trip and start a shuttle reservation, but login checks and approval prompts prevented it from finishing.
- What they did
- A user asked Dots to help outline a trip, then completed the flight and hotel reservations on their own. Dots noticed the shuttle still needed attention, reopened the booking page, verified the shared trip details, and began entering information on its cloud computer. The user approved each step, and they also tried to set wider permission boundaries.
- How it went
- The shuttle reservation never got to the end because the agent kept stopping for confirmation after the form was filled in. It also would not type emailed 2FA codes, and the permissions checker turned down most of the broad rules; only two made it through. The user rated it B-.
- Tips
- Expect to handle 2FA yourself if the booking site uses it, since that can interrupt a multi-step travel flow. Broad delegation rules may be rejected, so keep permissions narrow and specific.
Try it yourself with Dots
Help me organize a trip to [destination] from [start date] through [end date] for [number] people, with a total budget of [amount]. Give me a short comparison of flight, hotel, and shuttle options, then prepare the shuttle reservation. Pause before any payment or final submission, show me the details you entered, and wait for my approval. If a login page asks for an emailed code or other verification, stop and ask me to handle it before you continue.
