@nickbudden Totally!
We're fans of lola and Pana actually and both are great at helping you with flights and hotel bookings, or a reservation here or there. Journy is unique in that:
1) We're the only one who focuses on what you should do when you arrive to your destination in its entirety. Not only can we arrange your reservations, but we can also tell you the best order to visit everything in, and we're best equipped to answer questions like — if I can only do one 3-star Michelin restaurant in Paris, which one should it be?
2) Because of that, we're also the only one with an interface that makes it easy for a traveler to easily access the information they need on their itinerary.
3) Journy recommendations come from hand-picked experts.
4) Journy doesn't do flight bookings. We do help with hotel and can snag perks for our travelers there.

perfect product for travel lovers and globetrotter!!
@vincent_daranyi For us, it's that our recommendations come from real "tastemakers" (top chefs, somms, handpicked local experts). While many travel concierge apps out there can provide restaurant and activity recommendations, the content they use primarily comes from scraping or using TripAdvisor, Yelp, Foursquare and forcing you to look through and decide what's relevant for you. While Journy does utilize some external APIs for validation, every place in our database passes through our team before it's recommended.
@cemedericarak Hey Cem, we actually started with a flat rate model of $50 / trip, up to 7 days. However, many people wanted shorter trips and if you're only using Journy for 1-2 days, it doesn't make sense to pay $50. The per day planning makes sense both for the customer, and from a planning perspective since there are human elements that increase with increased number of days (e.g., number of reservations you might need).
@shawnlow Thanks Shawn! Firefly looks super cool too. We've definitely had customers ask for features to help document their travels and share them with friends. Not our focus right now, but love that you've made it yours!
