The travel section of Bing (
www.bing.com/travel) makes shopping for travel a more informed experience from the first click - reducing the number of steps between you and a fully booked trip.
What's hot: Bing Travel combines Farecast flight and hotel information with Microsoft editorial content. From the main Bing search area (www.bing.com), type in the airport codes of your departure and destination airports, and reservation numbers pop up along with a sample price and links to a 30-day outlook or deals.
What's not: The hotel section has a terrific, easy-to-use user interface. However, in my searches for "Vegas hotels," I discovered that the deals promoted did not match once I clicked through to the third-party site.
