Google Travel Explore/Things to Do #1457

Closed DavidMulder0 closed 7 months ago

DavidMulder0 commented 10 months ago

What's the Product's Name? Google Travel Explore/Things To Do (Technically Google Flights and their hotel indexing also falls under Google Travel, so not all of Google Travel brand is going away)

Describe the product in a single sentence. Ability to "explore" destinations on Google Travel. Find interesting locations to visit and save them automatically to lists on Google Maps.

When was the product launched? Provide a specific date, if possible.

In June 2019, Google announced that support for Google Trips would end on August 5, 2019. Users were then redirected to using the Google Travel website to plan their trips.

So it existed at least since then, but I am not sure since when exactly (as I used the Google Trips app up to that point).

When was the product discontinued? Provide a specific date, if possible.

This page will be going away on November 15th, 2023. You can still search for things to do on google.com.
