# Group Trip Planners 'Kayak Trip Huddle' Makes Planning Group Excursion Easier By Joey Haar | Published 2018-06-01 | World Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kayak-trip-huddle References: [digitaltrends](https://www.digitaltrends.com/web/kayak-trip-huddle-launches/?utm_source=feedly&utm_medium=webfeeds) & [kayak](https://www.kayak.com/huddle/) It's tough enough to get a complete group of one's friends out to the bar together, let alone a bar in a country on the other side of the planet, so the [Kayak](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kayak-and-taskrabbit) Trip Huddle tool helps the A-types in friend groups to get everyone else's butts in gear. The app gives planners an easy and, crucially, minimally annoying way to [plan out a trip](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tripadvancer) with a large group of people. Rather than starting up [group chats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/letsfinallymeet) that inevitably descend into chaos, Kayak Trip Huddle starts off by sending email invites to everyone in one's friend group. Once people have accepted or declined, the tool then creates a platform where everyone who's in can list their available dates, possible accommodation options, and, of course, potential destinations. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.5/10 - Popularity: 41% | Activity: 85% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [World](https://www.trendhunter.com/world) > [Travel](https://www.trendhunter.com/travel) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Group Trip Planning:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop a comprehensive group trip planning platform that integrates real-time availability and pricing for flights, accommodations, and activities. - **Collaborative Travel Apps:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create a collaborative travel app that allows users to coordinate and plan group trips, share itineraries, and make joint bookings. - **Streamlined Communication Tools:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Design communication tools specifically tailored for group trip planning, such as chat features, shared calendars, and task assignment functions. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Hospitality and Travel:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Revolutionize the hospitality and travel industry by providing innovative solutions for group trip planning. - **Social Networking:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Tap into the social networking industry by developing platforms that connect like-minded travelers and facilitate group trip planning. - **Mobile App Development:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Capitalize on the growing demand for mobile apps by creating innovative solutions for group trip planning and coordination. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Trip Coordination Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plan-harmony.md) - [Collaborative Travel Planning Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hollihopper.md) - [Dream Trip-Planning Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/martee-travel-planning-app.md) - [Travel Planning Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lets-trip-1.md) - [Group Trip Travel Features](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/videobased-travel-planning-platform.md) - [All-in-One Travel Planners](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/allinone-travel-planners.md) - [Social Trip-Planning Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tripmap.md) - [Organized Travel Planning](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tripplanss.md) - [All-In-One Travel Companions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/saathi-app.md)
