Goodbye Travel Agents, Hello AI Agents

The author recounts a 10-day solo trip across Japan planned almost entirely with AI agents, showcasing their ability to generate itineraries from diverse sources, adjust plans in real-time, and directly modify trip planning apps via an MCP server. The AI saved time by synthesizing information from YouTube, Reddit, and official sites, and handled dynamic replanning during the trip, such as optimizing a Shanghai layover down to the minute and reshaping an afternoon after early check-in.
