Five Travelers' Holiday Tests Show AI Itineraries Still Fail on Crowds, Traffic and Real-Time Info

Dingjiao One interviewed five people who used AI (Doubao, DeepSeek, Claude, OTA assistants) to plan Mid-Autumn/National Day holiday trips, and their failures align strikingly.
Typical mishaps: a 50-minute drive listed as 38 km turned into 1h50m at a new Changbai Mountain resort with half its shops unopened; quened hours at Quanzhou's Xunpu village and no ride home; a Korea itinerary splitting adjacent attractions across two days and allocating a whole morning to a market; a pre-dawn hike for a sunrise that lasted 30 seconds, with no contingency for clouds. One model also confused "today" with the planning date a week earlier and recommended a fully sold-out ticketing platform.
The consensus workflow: let AI build the framework and charts, but verify tickets, hours, and traffic yourself, always ask for backup plans, and rely on locals for real-time ground truth.
