#25.4 - Making Itsy Smarter and Faster
This week's update at Itsy brings two major improvements that are set to revolutionize travel booking: a game-changing availability calendar that offers a more elegant way to display multi-departure trips, and a performance overhaul that dramatically reduces system startup times and boosts overall responsiveness. The result? Faster, smoother, and more intuitive booking experiences that will make both travel professionals and their clients feel like they've just discovered a secret shortcut to travel planning magic.

The new Availability Calendar.
The highlight of this weeks' update is a new availability calendar. I've reimagined how multi-departure trips can be presented on websites, creating a more elegant and intuitive way for my customers to showcase their travel offerings. It's a small change that makes a big difference in how travel bookings can be managed and displayed. I'm continuing to push the boundaries of what's possible in travel technology, one update at a time.
Also, I've made some significant improvements to our platform that I'm excited to share. I've optimized the infrastructure, reducing startup times and enhancing our caching capabilities across all systems. The result is a noticeably more responsive system that makes booking travel smoother for everyone involved.
My customers will see real benefits from these changes. Both front-end interfaces and back-office systems now operate with improved speed and efficiency. What does this mean in practice? Faster searches, quicker load times, and an overall more streamlined experience for travel professionals and their clients.
... Happy Friday, and happy Itsying !
