FULL STORY ======================================================================

Microsoft is adding a number of new travel-related features to its Bing
search engine to help you save time and money when booking your next trip.

Planning a trip can be an exhausting process as you often have to visit one site to get inspiration, another to book flights and yet another to check out travel maps. For this reason, Microsoft has created a one-stop travel shop in Bing that provides aggregated information about destinations, itineraries, flights, hotels and more all in a visually rich format.

The software giants Travel Guide serves as a jumping-off point for all of
your trip-planning needs. You can see suggested itineraries under the What to see & do section or click on Book flights or Book hotels to get a full-page booking experience.

As Microsoft has partnered with top travel industry players to help you find competitive rates, you can be sure youre getting the best prices. Also, if youre pressed for time, Bing now offers bundled hotel and flight packages to make booking a breeze. (Image credit: Microsoft) Travel Guide home page

If you just want to plan a future trip without a specific destination in
mind, Bings Travel Guide home page is a great starting point to find further inspiration. The page rotates through top destinations worldwide and if one catches your eye, you can click on Explore more'' to visit the detailed page for that place.

Those seeking stunning landscapes can click on Experience in 360 to check out immersive views of potential destinations while those more interested in a destinations local cuisine can explore Bings Eat & Drink carousel to see all of the dishes and beverages they can taste there. Meanwhile, travelers on a budget can scroll down to the Coupons & Deals section to browse
cost-conscious options for flights, trip packages and more.
