The days of going through a travel agent are long gone. Utrip is a new platform that utilizes A.I. and big data to help users create their dream vacations all around the world.
Gilad Berenstein is the CEO of Utrip. He joins Cheddar to explain how consumers can choose preferences on the Utrip platform to plan their ideal vacation. With data and a continually learning system thanks to machine learning, Utip can combine all the work of Expedia, Yelp, Travel Blogs, and the like, all into one site.
In terms of trends, Berenstein says he sees a lot of millennials trying to go to more unique destinations. For Berenstein's travel dreams, his next destination is Cuba.
Automakers around the world are betting big on electric vehicles. Cheddar News took a peek at some of the models of the electric future at the New York International Auto Show.
Stocks closed mixed ahead of the release of more economic data. Matthew Johnson, president of Johnson Wealth & Income Management, joined Cheddar News to also weigh in on last week's jobs data and the status of the country's labor market and what that could mean for another Fed decision.
