Abstract

A computer system for extrapolating from relatively small amounts of information (700,702,704) provided by a consumer to generate a wide range oftravel options (710,712,714) that are still associated with the information provided by the consumer. For example, the system includes processes for generating or finding travel packages (706) with exactly matching travel dates and destinations supplied by the consumer. In addition, the system includes processes for varying the dates of travel by several days, or proximate weekends, and the destination of travel with nearby or regional destinations, so as to generate or find additional travel options (710,712,714). Further, the system can be configured to extract a theme of the consumer requested information and to use this theme to construct or find travel packages (716) with similar or matching themes.
