DECISION RULE

Use the buffered result for planning and the unbuffered result as the transparent baseline. Agree on shared inputs and ownership before comparing the two-person result. Review the assumptions midway because prices and usage may already have changed.

NOT INCLUDED

Live fares, exchange rates, visa rules, disruption, local taxes, baggage terms and availability are not fetched automatically.

VERIFY BEFORE ACTING

Replace defaults with current carrier, hotel, insurer and official border information before booking.
