Novel Optimisation and Prediction models to dramatically grow and expand flight-free travel

Byway提供无航班假期，让旅行者乘坐火车、公共汽车和船只远离人群，并使命于建立一个无航班假期成为主流的世界。我们的目标是加速向可持续休闲旅游的转型，吸引游客远离过度旅游的机场枢纽，前往其间的精彩地方，促进当地经济发展。虽然目前的地面旅行路线规划者，如谷歌地图和202Rio，优化了速度或成本，但我们优化了体验。我们以前所未有的方式将多式联运与个性化体验和住宿动态打包，根据客户偏好创建定制套餐度假选项。该项目将开发新的创新工具，为我们的流程添加自动化步骤和额外的定制，同时仍然提供由我们内部的慢行专家利用其深厚的区域知识构建的行程。

Byway offers flight-free holidays that take travellers away from the crowds by train, bus and boat, and is on a mission to build a world in which flight-free holidays are mainstream. We aim to accelerate the transition to sustainable leisure travel, drawing tourists away from airport hubs suffering from over-tourism to the wonderful places in between, boosting local economies.While current ground-travel route planners like Google Maps and Rome2Rio optimise for speed or cost, we optimise for experience. We dynamically package multi-modal ground transportation with personalised experiences and accommodation in a way that's never been done before, creating custom package holiday options built around customer preferences.This project will develop new innovative tools to add automation steps and additional customisation to our process, whilst still offering itineraries built by our in-house slow-travel experts using their deep regional knowledge.
