Manage My Booking

  • Understanding the business point of view was a significant part of this project. What value are we bringing through this revamp?

  • Via conducting quantitative research, we recruited 20 travelers with upcoming bookings within 6 months to test our prototype and understand what was insufficient about the previous version.

  • Through desktop research, benchmarking, and collaboration with stakeholders, the design hypothesis was formed and presented to the senior leadership team.

  • Mapping out all scenarios with solutions that accommodate users’ needs.

  • After launching the design 100% we look at the experiment result and continue to iterate the design.

Manage My Booking (MMB) has now most of the necessary data points to understand the micro-conversion rate at each step of the post booking funnel


Problem Statement

Post booking done was untouched since 2013. It has several problems…

  • Outdated design

  • Post booking experience was very limited

  • Most amendment needs to be done through customer service agents

  • Lack of payment condition

I just want to confirm if my booking was made successfully

User Lab

During the study we learned more about how our participants amend or solve problems with their bookings, from the initial trigger to resolution.

There are 3 parts to the “Amendment Journey“

Decision

How the user discovers the need and decides how and when to address it

Execution

How the user actually take action to make an amendment, solve a problem, or answer a question

Result

The outcome or series of follow-ups of any action the user takes to amend their booking, solve a problem, or answer a question


Design Hypothesis

We can own Execution and influence Result. Building a better experience in these two phases will increase user confidence during Decision.

By doing so, we may able to reduce CEG touchpoint and provide first-class self-service tool for our travelers.

Design Exploration

On first fold, we highlight all actions available. Enabling user to quickly access the amendments they wish to do, order structured base on top demands from our research.

Next, breaking down all booking detail scenarios base on inventory types

Things changes while planing for a trip.

By visualizing cancelation policy and the status of free refund / partial refund period brings user great confidence on their bookings

One of the biggest challenge is handling all the cancellation scenarios and provide user adequate informations they need

Ahh, and don’t forget about mobile!

What I’ve learned…

In order to align with the business goal, you have to take a step back and focus on the bigger picture. Breaking down the complexity step by step :)
