Google first launched Flight Deals back in August in the U.S., Canada, and India. Now, the company is expanding the AI-powered search tool within Google Flights globally to help people quickly find affordable destinations.

To get started, users need to describe where, when, and how they want to travel. Flight Deals will then use AI to display the best bargains available.

Flight Deals is now rolling out to more than 200 countries and territories worldwide, including the U.K., France, Germany, Mexico, Brazil, Indonesia, Japan, and Korea. The tool is also getting support for more than 60 languages.

As for the new AI Mode features, Google says users can now use the built-in Canvas tool to create travel plans. Canvas, which first launched as a way to build study plans and organize information over multiple sessions in a side panel, can now help users plan their upcoming trips.

Users need to tell AI mode what type of trip they’re looking for and then select the “Create with Canvas” option.

“Right away, you’ll get a plan in the Canvas side panel that brings together real-time Search data for flights and hotels, details from Google Maps like photos and reviews and relevant information from sites across the web,” Google explained in a blog post. “You’ll find suggestions that fit your criteria, like hotel comparisons based on pricing and amenities or ideas for restaurants and activities optimized by travel time from where you’re staying.”

Users can then ask follow-up questions and get help with tradeoffs, like choosing a hotel that’s closer to a brunch place you want to try but a bit farther from the hiking trails you want to explore.

Travel planning with Canvas is available on desktop in the U.S. for users who are opted into the AI Mode experiment in Labs.

Additionally, Google announced that it’s bringing AI Mode’s agentic capabilities to more people. Earlier this year, Google announced that users who were opted into Labs could now get help with booking restaurant reservations, event tickets, and beauty and wellness appointments in AI Mode. Now, the company is making this capability available to all U.S. users.

Users can request dinner reservations based on multiple preferences, such as party size, date, time, location, and preferred cuisine. AI Mode will then search across different reservation platforms to find real-time availability for restaurants that match the inquiry. It then surfaces a curated list of options to choose from.

In the future, Google says it will make it possible to finish booking flights and hotels directly in AI Mode. Users will be able to describe what they’re looking for and then compare different flights or hotels and browse information like schedules, prices, room photos, amenities, and reviews.
