Executive Summary
Completing an Evaluation of the site Google Flights, some findings and
recommendations were made. The analysis methods used were video screen
recording software, logging sheet reviews, analysis of critical incidents, and
short notes made from observations.
The number one finding was that there are many airlines, but not is possible
searching by a specific airline, you have to use many scroll in this case a field with
searching option must be included in this filter. Next, the experience of searching
services is good but is necessary to unify the findings and put all in a basket similar
to supermarkets. Lastly, the sorter not is clear what is the default configuration
(prices, time, etc) is better include some icon that make its easy to understand.
