Overview
The author gave Comet and ChatGPT Atlas the same flight-booking task; Comet mostly pointed to aggregators instead of specific flights.
Workflow
Suggested implementation: The user provides a flight search prompt specifying nonstop SFO to NYC flights for April 24-26, 2026, with time constraints and preferred airlines (United, JetBlue, Alaska) and airports (JFK, LGA). The agent attempts to retrieve specific flight data. If direct retrieval fails, the agent offers browser mode, and the user selects logged-out browsing to proceed. The human reviews returned combinations for usability.
Reported result
Outcomes are unknown as the source is inaccessible (HTTP 403). Proposed acceptance check: Verify if the agent returns specific flight numbers, times, and prices rather than generic aggregator links. Measure success by the percentage of results containing concrete booking details.
Human role
The original post does not say how a person stayed involved.
Limitations
Prerequisites include access to flight data APIs or browser automation capabilities. Constraints involve potential failures in direct data retrieval, requiring fallback to browser mode. Integration uncertainty exists regarding logged-out browsing effectiveness. Human approval is required for selecting browsing modes and reviewing results.
Try it
Act as a travel booking assistant. I need to find nonstop flights from SFO to NYC leaving Friday, April 24, 2026, after 2 PM, and returning Sunday, April 26, 2026, in the evening. My preferred airlines are United, JetBlue, and Alaska. My preferred arrival airports are JFK and LGA. First, attempt to retrieve specific flight options with times, airports, and prices. If you cannot provide specific flights directly, offer to use browser mode. I will choose logged-out browsing. After retrieving results, present them clearly. Do not just provide links to aggregator sites; I need concrete flight details. If results are too numerous, help me narrow them down based on my preferences. Before finalizing any booking or spending, ask for my confirmation. If you encounter errors, explain them and suggest alternatives. Start by confirming you understand the search parameters.
