Google added three travel features to AI Mode in Search: hotel search and booking through partners including Booking.com, Expedia and Marriott, with payment via Google Pay; flight-price tracking across more than 300 airlines and travel partners in over 180 countries, with email alerts when prices change; and a points-and-miles view showing redemption costs from partners such as Alaska Airlines, American Airlines, Hilton and Wyndham. Hotel booking is rolling out first in the U.S. in English, per Google's announcement.

Why it matters: AI Mode keeps extending from an answer surface into a transaction surface, following the same action-layer pattern as its July third-party app integrations.
