The Google Assistant has gotten more features, this time aimed at travelers who can now get information on predicted flight delays, ticket prices and exploration information for unfamiliar destinations. Questions like “Hey Google, is my flight on time?” or “Hey Google, what’s the status of the American Airlines flight from Philadelphia to Denver?” will spur up-to-date answers for people moving to various destinations.

Over the next few weeks, the Assistant will begin proactively notifying users on the phone if a flight delay is predicted and the reason for the delay if known. Google Flights also now helps users understand what’s included in their ticket prices, Users will see if prices include a carry-on bag and can filter to see the prices that include carry-on luggage and checked bag fees for domestic flights in the U.S.
