    • The present invention provides a method, apparatus and system for processing fare queries to find the best fares. In one embodiment a query server utiliz es a branching and bounding based technique to implicitly enumerate possible solutions to arrive at best fare solutions. A fare query is received (705) a nd used to add (800) fare breakpoints to partial solution below a threshold cos t. The fare components defined by the breakpoints are assigned (900) carriers a nd then assigned (1000) flights. The fare components with flight assignements a re then grouped (110) to form priceable units, which are in turn assigned (1200 ) fares. Any partial solutions with identical trip information (except fare information) are then eliminated (710). A determination is made whether an ending scenario has been reached (715). If no ending scenario has been reach ed (715), the threshold cost in increased (725) and processing begins again. If an ending scenario has been reached (715), the lowest cost solutions are generated (720).

    • A network-based service may be provided for facilitating queries for a number of items, such as travel services. A user may submit a query including criteria for determining relevant items. The network-based service may be configured to generate opaque search results in response to queries, revealing sufficient detail to allow the user to confirm the relevance of the travel item, but insufficient detail to disclose the identity of the supplier. Based on the submitted query or other information, the network-based service may associate a persona with the user, such as the persona of a business or leisure traveler. The network based service may use the persona to determine a travel item or items best suited to the user, by identifying the travel item attributes that correlate positively with preferences of the persona. The network-based service may then generate an opaque search result that reveals travel item attributes desired by the persona.

    • A system for enhancing search results for a travel item of interest, the system comprising: a data storage device configured to maintain one or more travel advisories, wherein each of the travel advisories corresponds to a travel advisory parameter; a travel advisory computing device in communication with the data storage device, the travel advisory computing device configured to: in response to submission by a first user of a travel item query identifying a travel item parameter, obtain identification of a travel item corresponding to the travel item parameter; select a first travel advisory of the one or more travel advisories that matches the travel item, wherein the first travel advisory and the travel item are matched based upon their respective travel advisory parameter and travel item parameter; and generate instructions to display a first user interface that presents the first travel advisory to the first user concurrently with a selectable option to purchase the travel item.
