Patent number: 9679263Abstract: The present invention provides a methodology and system for efficiently performing travel reservation queries and presenting significant search results to a user. A travel reservation search engine constructs a first query from one or more constraints. The first query has a threshold probability of returning a first set of search results that will lead to the purchase of a travel reservation. Additionally, if determined necessary by the search engine a second query is constructed from one or more constraints. The second query returns a second set of search results.Type: GrantFiled: February 13, 2015Date of Patent: June 13, 2017Assignee: Kayak Software CorporationInventors: Paul M. English, Travis M.
