Presenting a travel option

Abstract

Presentation of travel options may involve presenting a travel option based on an event stored in a calendar of a user. A suggestion machine may access calendar data of the user and travel data for a travel option (e.g., a flight from San Francisco to New York). Based on the accessed calendar data and travel data, the suggestion machine may present one or more travel options to the user.

         2 . A method comprising:
 accessing calendar data of a user, the calendar data indicating a first period of time that corresponds to an event scheduled for the user;   accessing travel data of a travel option, the travel data indicating a second period of time that corresponds to the travel option and indicating a location that corresponds to the travel option, the first period of time for the event coinciding at least in part with the second period of time for the travel option; and   presenting the travel option with a map that depicts the location that corresponds to the travel option, the presenting of the travel option being performed by a processor of a machine.   
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein:
 the travel data indicates that the location is a departure location of the travel option, the travel option being a transportation option; and   the presenting of the travel option with the map includes presenting the departure location of the travel option within the map.   
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein:
 the travel data indicates that the location is an arrival location of the travel option, the travel option being a transportation option; and   the presenting of the travel option with the map includes presenting the arrival location of the travel option within the map.   
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein:
 the travel data indicates that the location is an accommodation location of a hotel stay; and   the presenting of the travel option with the map includes presenting the accommodation location of the hotel stay within the map.   
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein:
 the map is a geographical map that depicts a city that includes the location that corresponds to the travel option.   
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein:
 the presenting of the travel option with the map that depicts the location of the travel option presents a reminder that the event is scheduled to occur during the first period of time.   
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein:
 the presenting of the travel option with the map that depicts the location of the travel option includes communicating a reminder to the user via a device of the user.   
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein:
 the calendar data indicates an attendee of the event other than the user; and   the presenting of the travel option with the map that depicts the location of the travel option includes communicating a reminder to the attendee via a device of the attendee.   
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein:
 the presenting of the travel option with the map presents the location that corresponds the travel option as a pin within the map.   
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein:
 the presenting of the travel option with the map presents a further location of a further event scheduled for the user within the map.   
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein:
 the presenting of the travel option with the map presents a further location that corresponds to a further travel option within the map.   
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein:
 the first period of time for the event fully coincides with the second period of time for the travel option.   
     
     
         14 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein:
 the travel option includes an airline flight scheduled to occur during the second period of time.   
     
     
         15 . A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a machine, cause the machine to perform operations comprising:
 accessing calendar data of a user, the calendar data indicating a first period of time that corresponds to an event scheduled for the user;   accessing travel data of a travel option, the travel data indicating a second period of time that corresponds to the travel option and indicating a location that corresponds to the travel option, the first period of time for the event coinciding at least in part with the second period of time for the travel option; and   presenting the travel option with a map that depicts the location that corresponds to the travel option.   
     
     
         16 . The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of  claim 15 , wherein:
 the calendar data indicates that the user is scheduled to participate in the event during the first period of time.   
     
     
         17 . The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of  claim 15 , wherein:
 the travel data indicates that the location is a departure location of the travel option, the travel option being a transportation option; and   the presenting of the travel option with the map includes presenting the departure location of the travel option within the map.   
     
     
         18 . A system comprising:
 an access module configured to:
 accessing calendar data of a user, the calendar data indicating a first period of time that corresponds to an event scheduled for the user; and 
 accessing travel data of a travel option, the travel data indicating a second period of time that corresponds to the travel option and indicating a location that corresponds to the travel option, the first period of time for the event coinciding at least in part with the second period of time for the travel option; and 
   a processor configured to present the travel option with a map that depicts the location that corresponds to the travel option.   
     
     
         19 . The system of  claim 18 , wherein:
 the travel data indicates that the location is a departure location of the travel option, the travel option being a transportation option; and   the processor is configured to present the travel option with the map by presenting the departure location of the travel option within the map.   
     
     
         20 . The system of  claim 18 , wherein:
 the travel data indicates that the location is an arrival location of the travel option, the travel option being a transportation option; and   the processor is configured to present the travel option with the map by presenting the arrival location of the travel option within the map.   
     
     
         21 . The system of  claim 18 , wherein:
 the processor is configured to present the travel option with the map by presenting a reminder that the event is scheduled to occur during the first period of time.
