Travel Booking app
Problem Statement
Wanderlust wants to improve the user experience of their
mobile app to increase user engagement, bookings, and
customer satisfaction

2. Pain Points
QM Confusion with lot of Options: Ever felt like you're
deciphering hieroglyphics while trying to find your flight
details? Yeah, that's the "User Experience" playing hide and
seekM
M Selecting wrong Date: Accidentally booking a flight for the
wrong date is like trying to fit into your high school jeans –
it doesn't quite work outM
4M Filter Fiasco: Trying to filter search results is like choosing
toppings at an ice cream parlor – a lot of options and
you're not sure what you really want.

3. Goals
; First impressions matter, right? Guide users through a
picturesque onboarding journey, with simple visual cues and
least amount of CTA, so that user don’t get lost in the booking
proces2
; Give users a sneak peek into their upcoming adventure!

virtually walk on the beaches or stroll through historical streets

Vagator Beach, Goa
Goa is a state in western India with coastlines stretching
along the Arabian Sea. Its long history as a Portuguese
colony prior to 1961 is evident in its preserved 17th-
century churches and the area’s tropical spice
plantations. Goa is also known for its beaches, ranging
from popular stretches at Baga and Palolem to those in
laid-back fishing villages such as Agonda.
