rates by at least 16%. According to the h2c report, conversion rate is the clear number one

Financial Feasibility

The main factors to be kept in consideration while developing a complete travel booking application
are:

App platform- The MakeMyTrip Android or iOS app development cost varies based on the different
platforms; Android costs relatively higher than the iOS platform because it mainly has more devices
to test against. (Amongst other reasons)

App design- For an app like MakeMyTrip Online booking app development to maintain its hold in the
market, it is important to fancy customers with a variety of options in a variety of places by luring
them into making reservations. The app must design to be user-friendly and engaging.

App size- MakeMyTrip mobile app cost varies an overall size of an app is formed by its features and
its functionality. This results in various surplus charges.

App Developer- Ticket booking app development like MakeMyTrip varies in developers, a good and
experienced developer is vital as his location and expertise also influencing the development of the
app.

Advance and External Features-Features like data sync, geolocation, booking/delivery calendar, push
notification along-side OTP evaluation, etc. Access Control Panel-The use of backend cms,

The App should provide all the below mentioned information and features:

Travel Suggestions: It is a top priority feature of any travel mobile application. Users can directly
enter their destination to get the complete details of the travel. Get the best holiday packages,
booking, dining in the respective area. Traveller can check for the best time and budget for the
reservations. It is one of the complex and required features of any travel app. USM, the best travel
apps developer in the USA and India, will give a step-by-step approach to application development.

Geo-Location Services: Tourists are always new to the place and search for the routes while reaching
attractions and hotels in the area. A geo-tracking system with maps and navigations in the
application will give users a hassle-free and safe trip experience. So, developing a travel app with
GPS integration will lead your path for the best travel app for Android and iOS.

Currency Converter: It is the essential feature of any travel application or website. Users travel to
different countries that have their unique currencies. It will be easy for the passengers if the booking
prices are available in their comfortable currency value. The feature also helps in knowing currency
exchange rates while on the trip.

Travel Reviews: Genuine reviews of a place from a fellow traveller are beneficial while exploring.
Users can check ratings for attractions and destinations before booking their trip and get details.
Allowing recommendations in travel apps is an element for gaining trust. Contact USM, the best
travel application developers in the USA and India, to include this feature in your app at a reasonable
price.

Transport Booking Facility: It is another great feature that any mobile travel app should include in
the list. This facility should not comprise only hotels. It should have a service of intercity transport
with suggestions of attractions and tourism places. So, the user does not need to search for another
local app for transport facilities. This feature will increase the satisfaction rate towards your travel
mobile application.

Flexible Payment Service: You need to provide flexible and secured payment gateways for your
users. Make sure you add all the trusted online payments, credit and debit card payments in your
application. It helps users to sit back and directly make payments for the booking within the mobile
travel application.

Social Media Sharing: Social media platforms are the best place for any business advertisement.
Most of the travellers post their travel experiences on their accounts. If the users share images and
videos by tagging your mobile application, that will increase the app exposure globally.
Details of Offers and Deals: Travel is more fun when you can afford the expenses. People first search
for the best offers and discounts among the available options. So, providing the best deals will give
your application a large customer base.

technology used in mobile app development.

Different airlines and different hotels offers different level of commission. Airlines commission range
between 5–15% and hotel commission are from 15-35% and throwing some other technic they can
push this upto 50% and above too. I don't know in context you are looking the answer but at present
India need a regulatory board for online travel agents like MMT ‘GOIBIBO ‘YATRA' Traveguru ‘
Cleratrip Booking. Com ‘etc. Because travel agents have taken the competition to a certain level
which is not good for the customer and hotel industry in longer run. Only a Regulatory body can fix
the problem of commission ‘discount ‘offer and other things and make the business ethically
responsible.
