Alabot Travel FAQ

Q:     Why do the links expire after some time?
Ans : Our Session expires within 5 minutes from the time of search.

Q:        Which cities do we support currently?
Ans      http://blog.alabot.com/2008/07/19/list-of-cities-handled-by-alabot-travel/

Q:  How about some sample conversations guys?

Ans: Good point - we know this stuff is new and our users need some hand holding at first.

Our help video is being made so please bear with us. In the meantime please check out some sample conversations below.A word to the wise….alabot has not been injected with the sarcasm present in most human interaction….but it has everything else. speak to it like you would to your buddy, spelling mistakes and all. It understands…. and doesnt judge you……….:)

Q:  How do i restart the conversation - sometimes Alabot doesnt respond. Why does this happen? grr
Ans:    Just type exit anytime in the conversation process - you can then restart from the top. This may happen in instances when our engine is not able to comprehend certain spellings and iterations - it will go away in some time as Alabot will self learn and heal itself. The more users interact with him, the more intelligent he becomes.


Q: Are the flight prices the cheapest compared to other portals?
Ans: Our intent is to tie up with “best of breed” content partners, we do not add any surcharge or fees on top.  Check the rates out for yourself!!

Q: Is this a free service?
Ans: Yes - it will be free for all our users.

Q: Do you support other languages?
Ans:  Our vision is to make applications interactive across language and demographics. Our next release will have a flavour of a few Indian languages as well.

Q: Are you adding anything else?

Ans: Yes, lots more - including deep dive local search, scores, news, other travel related stuff.. soon… we are waiting for Ala’s brain to get mature..
