"Where should we go for a weekend in the UK in November?" A traveller asking that might hear about three places. Destinations now compete for AI's shortlist the way businesses do.

## What AI draws on for destinations

National and regional tourist board sites, travel press, guidebooks and Reddit threads.

## What DMOs can do

- Make the official site the clearest source: seasons, events, transport, itineraries, accessibility.
- Publish pages for the trip types travellers ask about.
- Keep event listings current.
- Help local businesses get their own facts right, because AI recommends destinations partly through the places in them.
