Velari™ uses artificial intelligence and other automated technologies to help personalize the travel experience.

AI may be used to:

Velari™ may use third-party technology, cloud, and artificial-intelligence providers to process information on our behalf.

We do not treat AI-generated recommendations as medical, psychological, financial, legal, or other professional advice.

AI systems can make mistakes. Recommendations should therefore be considered travel-planning suggestions rather than guarantees regarding a destination, property, experience, price, availability, or outcome.
