MakeMyTrip launches ‘Travel Ka Muhurat’
Representative Image: Thai local tour guide is explaining history of old Siam to the couple of tourist on their backpacker honeymoon travel to ancient temple of Ayutthaya, Thailand MakeMyTrip announced the launch of ‘Travel Ka Muhurat’ a new calendar moment designed to mark the start of India’s year end travel planning season. The property spans the entire travel journey, from flights and stays to holiday packages, ground transport, tours and attractions, and essentials such as visa, forex, and travel insurance, bringing together leading airlines, hospitality brands across India and abroad, and major banking partners to offer travellers exceptional value. Every week of the campaign will spotlight select domestic and international leisure destinations, blending beaches, hills, culture, and city escapes, to help travellers find fresh inspiration for year-end vacations. The inaugural edition of Travel Ka Muhurat runs from October 29 to November 30, 2025, with MMTBLACK members enjoying exclusive early access, along with Black Friday Deals every Friday and Lightning Drops, limited inventory offers available daily between 6:00 PM and 9:00 PM. “Travel Ka Muhurat is a first of its kind initiative in the travel category that both travellers and our partners would benefit immensely from,” said Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder & Group CEO, MakeMyTrip. “As India’s leading travel platform, we are uniquely positioned to bring the ecosystem together at a scale that delivers exceptional value to the travellers. With the support of our partners, we want to make the planning experience as exciting and inspiring as the travel itself.” The timing of Travel Ka Muhurat is based on insights into when Indians actively plan their trips. Based on booking trends observed on MakeMyTrip, many travellers, anticipating that quality options will sell out and fares will rise in December, finalise their trips earlier, with nearly 30% completing their bookings by November. For international travel, the window opens even sooner, with a visible spike in October. This evolving price-and-availability anticipation mindset has set the stage for a dedicated travel planning season — a gap that Travel Ka Muhurat now seeks to define and formalise as India’s own annual moment for travel planning. Designed for this decisive phase, it helps travellers convert intent into action through curated offers across flights, stays, and destinations.

MakeMyTrip Launches Industry-First Initiative to Boost Wildlife Tourism in India
Representative Image MakeMyTrip has introduced an industry-first initiative designed to simplify the discovery and booking of hotels and homestays in and around India’s national parks. Covering more than 100 national parks across the country, the initiative addresses a common challenge: travelers exploring these vast and multi-zoned parks often struggle to identify the right accommodation — whether it is located near a specific entry gate for easier safari access or situated inside or outside the park boundaries. Proximity to the entry gate has always been one of the most sought-after pieces of information for visitors, yet one of the hardest to find. To address this gap, MakeMyTrip has leveraged AI to map over 2,000 hotels and homestays with their nearest national park zones. Travelers can now simply search for a national park or a specific zone gate on the platform and instantly discover accommodation options mapped to specific entry gates and park boundaries, making their choice faster and more reliable. Users on the platform will also have access to key park information through the ‘Tips’ section, which provides details on National Park’s operational hours, peak visitation periods, entry protocols, transport routes, and the official website of the state tourism board to support informed decision-making. “India is home to more than 100 national parks and over 1,000 protected areas, offering immense potential for wildlife tourism. On our platform, searches for national parks have doubled over the past two years, a clear sign of the growing interest among travellers. By making it easier to discover and book stays around these destinations, we hope to encourage more people to explore India’s natural heritage and contribute to the growth of this segment,” said Ankit Khanna, Chief Product Officer – Hotel, Growth & Emerging Businesses, MakeMyTrip. This launch underlines MakeMyTrip’s commitment to transforming fragmented and often difficult-to-search travel experiences into seamless journeys. Over time, the company has introduced a series of product innovations aimed at making travel search more intuitive, personalized, and accessible for every traveller.
MakeMyTrip launches Multilingual GenAI Trip Planning Assistant
MakeMyTrip announced a significant leap in product evolution with the launch of GenAI-enabled Trip Planning Assistant, that assist users at every stage of travel planning, from discovery to fulfilment, and beyond. Users would find conversational assistance through their entire journey, from destination-discovery, shopping, in-trip, and post-sales scenarios. The new GenAI Trip Planning Assistant is a notable upgrade to the existing AI agent, Myra, and will make the experience seamless and conversational, enabling travellers to interact via voice and text. This will ensure that users across India who have previously been unable to book due to discomfort with the English language, will now be able to do so. The Beta version of Myra is now live in English and Hindi, with plans to expand to multiple Indian languages, after fine tuning conversation flows based on early user feedback. Users can ask complex and open-ended queries in the realm of travel in Hindi or English like "Where can I go in August for a relaxing holiday with my kids? Or “Mujhe Udaipur mein 3-star hotel 3500 ke budget mein chahiye” Or "I want to go to south India to cover Madurai, Rameswaram, Kovalam, Kodaikanal. Can you suggest me the best route? I don’t want to travel via flight” and receive dynamic, personalised responses based on real-time availability, pricing, and relevance. Multiple AI platforms globally stop at suggestions, Myra is taking a course that hasn't been attempted before by bridging the gap between inspiration and actual booking, letting users move from query to confirmed booking in one conversational journey built on voice end-to-end. The GenAI Trip Planning Assistant, Myra, is built on a network of specialised AI agents across all major travel categories, flights, accommodation, holidays, ground transport, visas, and forex. It supports multimodal input (text, voice, image, video), continuous back-and-forth dialogue, itinerary edits, and post-sales support—all within the same interface. Speaking at the launch, Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO, MakeMyTrip said “We have always believed that technology is at its best when it solves complex problems behind the scenes, while making the customer interface as intuitive and as delightful as possible. With GenAI, we take that vision further by turning intent into action through natural, human-like conversations. By enabling access initially in Hindi, and expanding to multiple Indian languages soon, this launch has the potential to solve for the Bharat heartland, reaching the deepest corners, and bringing seamless, intelligent travel booking to those who’ve long been underserved by digital platforms. It brings together the full strength of our platform, including customer preferences data, supply, user-generated content, personalization, and real-time intelligence, to power the next era of travel: connected journeys that intuitively adapt to each traveller’s needs, from start to finish.” “The scale and complexity of this system make it one of the most ambitious tech builds we have undertaken at MakeMyTrip. It is also the first of its kind to operate across so many categories, in real time, and at this depth. Our in-house team has developed custom language models and layered them with planning, scheduling, and verification systems that work in sync and respond in real time. The result is a multi-agent AI framework that collaborates across categories to deliver a seamless experience. The system is currently in beta, allowing us to learn from real interactions and continue strengthening it,” said Sanjay Mohan, Group CTO, MakeMyTrip. In 2023, MakeMyTrip became one of the first travel platforms to integrate GenAI into its core booking experience. This early investment in AI builds on a broader track record of using technology to solve real-world traveller challenges. Over the years, the platform has introduced features such as Fare Lock, Zero Cancellation, voice-led customer support, and, recently, predictive tools for train bookings. The current launch extends that momentum, bringing AI deeper into the platform and across the entire journey from planning and purchase to service and support. The next phase of development will introduce richer semantic search capabilities, AI-driven use cases on images & videos, enabling users to move beyond structured filters and interact through more abstract, intent-led queries. This will allow the system to understand and respond to nuanced travel needs, making discovery even more fluid and personalised. As the GenAI platform evolves, MakeMyTrip will continue to push the boundaries of how travellers plan, book, and experience their trips.

MakeMyTrip turns ‘25’
Representative Image MakeMyTrip, celebrates 25 years of being #IndiaKaTravelPartner, marking the occasion with a nostalgic and heartwarming brand film featuring its long-time ambassadors, Alia Bhatt and Ranveer Singh. This 25-year journey is a story of how travel in India has transformed and how MakeMyTrip has played a pivotal role in that evolution. At a time when online travel bookings were met with scepticism due to low internet penetration and inhibitions around digital transactions, MakeMyTrip took a leap of faith. Founded in April 2000, the brand set out to empower Indian travelers by making trip planning and booking seamless and accessible through technology. As digital adoption grew and consumer preferences shifted, travel in India underwent a profound transformation. Once considered an occasional luxury, travel has now become a far more integral part of life, with a large portion of disposable income being allocated on travel. The excitement of long weekends, the growing aspiration for luxury vacations, the rise of drivecations fueled by improved infrastructure, and the increasing ease of cross-border travel have redefined how Indians explore. Today, travelers are more confident, spontaneous, and eager to embrace new experiences—driven by an innate desire to create lasting memories. And MakeMyTrip has been at the heart of this. From flights and hotels to holiday packages, alternative accommodations, rail and bus ticketing, taxis, forex services, travel insurance, and visa assistance, MakeMyTrip has grown into a full-stack travel super-app, redefining the way India experiences travel. Today, the company boasts over 80 million lifetime transacted customers, more than 490 million app downloads, and processes approximately 230 transactions every minute across its three platforms – MakeMyTrip, Goibibo and redBus –underscoring its massive scale and impact in the travel industry. To celebrate this milestone, the company has launched a heartfelt film, that takes viewers on a nostalgic journey through the years. The film opens with Alia and Ranveer flipping through an old photo album, reminiscing about childhood vacations—those simpler times of spontaneous travel, when families arrived at hotels without prior bookings. It then transitions through different eras, showcasing the advent of cyber cafes for online reservations and the gradual shift to mobile apps that made travel planning effortless. The film beautifully captures how MakeMyTrip has been a constant companion in this journey, making travel more accessible, convenient, and delightful. As the story unfolds, it also offers a playful glimpse into the future—where Alia and Ranveer, with childlike wonder, imagine what travel could look like 25 years from now. A trip to Mars, perhaps? Of course, booked on MakeMyTrip. “Our 25-year journey has been shaped by an unwavering commitment to customer-centricity, delivering value to our partners, and staying true to our vision of making travel simpler, smarter, and seamless,” said Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder & Group CEO of MakeMyTrip. “This milestone isn’t just ours—it belongs to every traveler who has placed their trust in us, every partner who has grown alongside us, and every team member who has shaped our journey. As we look ahead, our commitment remains stronger than ever—to push boundaries, drive innovation, and create even more enriching travel experiences. For us, this is just the beginning, and the best is yet to come.” As it marks the 25-year milestone, MakeMyTrip stands not only as a travel leader, but also as a reminder that lasting success is built on strong fundamentals: product-market fit, customer obsession, and the ability to adapt quietly and consistently.

With a vast inventory of 86,000+ domestic accommodations across 2,000+ cities on the platform, finding the perfect stay can often be overwhelming. ‘Collections’ aims to address this challenge by leveraging Generative AI (GenAI) and deep traveller insights to intelligently categorize stay options into curated themes, helping users find accommodations that best match their travel needs and preferences.
