You're right, flights/travel is so mission critical that we don't see "AI" taking over this workflow anytime soon. There will be a real person verifying every decision for the near and medium-term future. The automation component helps these real-people make decisions faster (ideal case is 30 seconds or less once it gets really good)

Linking to their Calendar would be interesting so you can know their business schedule.

Yes! We're working on the calendar integration :) We find that several business users will omit calendar because of privacy or because they don't keep them up to date, but power users of GCal would love this I think
I’m interested in seeing how you end up dealing with inaccuracies that arise in a almost-safety-critical operation. E.g, in your example, returning at 9 (even ignoring delays) would make the traveler miss their meeting.
