Admitting that these platforms offer price visibility is a good start, but believing they inherently incorporate the impact of local events is to ignore nuance. These tools excel at showing pure price, the opportunity cost of a flight, but they will never tell you if the sardine festival in Portimão will make your Airbnb unavailable. The traveler must do the interpretation and cross-referencing of information so that these raw data reach their full potential. Without this proactive analysis, these tools remain simple price displays, far from the maximum performance they could offer.
