Description
I fly between the Canary Islands and mainland Spain regularly. Every time I book, I deal with the same frustrations: awful airline UX, re-entering passenger details, find the perfect seat, constant upsells, and wondering if I'm being scammed.So I built Avolal—the flight booking tool I wanted.What makes it different: - Natural language search that understands context Type "SF to Seattle next weekend" → picks Friday PM/Sunday return Type "SF to LA Monday, meeting at 2pm in Santa Monica" → finds the right flights - Learns your preferences (seats, fares, routes) and saves your details - Ranks by actual value (price + time + airport quality), not commission - No dark patterns, no ads, no gamesYou can try it at avolal.com - no signup required to search.Still very early. Would love honest feedback on what works and what doesn't.

Could you build this?
Partial The front-end user experience and profile saving can be vibe-coded easily, but accessing live flight inventory, seat selection, and reliable programmatic ticket issuance requires commercial GDS/aggregator APIs (e.g., Duffel, Amadeus) with strict compliance and accreditation.
What it would actually take: The architecture needs a modern Next.js front end backed by an integration server talking to flight distribution APIs like Duffel, Sabre, or Amadeus NDC. The difficult aspect is handling airline booking state machines (hold, pricing confirmation, ticketing, seat mapping, ancillary selection) along with PCI-DSS compliance for payment handling and Spanish resident discount verification.

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a vertical saas tool for Insurance yet.
