You can begin a personalized Jett search by sharing your preferences directly. Connecting email or calendar is optional. The useful starting point is enough context to understand the trip you want and the tradeoffs you are willing to make.
Past trips can be informative, but a new search does not have to begin with account connections. A few clear answers can give an agent a more useful brief than a long, vague description of an ideal vacation.
Start with the practical trip
Tell Jett where you are leaving from, where you need to go and when. If the destination is a meeting or event, the address is more useful than the city alone. An arrival deadline can matter more than a preferred departure time.
That context supports a door-to-door comparison. It helps put airports, ground transfers and the timing of the day into the same decision.
If you are still deciding on the trip, say which details are flexible. Fixed dates and flexible dates call for different searches, just as a specific venue and a general neighborhood provide different anchors.
Share the preferences that change a choice
Focus on the factors that would make you pick one option over another.
Your price-and-time balance
Are you happy to pay more to save an hour? Would you accept a connection for a meaningful saving? You do not need a precise formula. Explaining the direction of your preference gives the search a useful starting point.
Brands and familiarity
Mention airline or hotel preferences that matter, including loyalty considerations. Also explain whether they are strong requirements or preferences you would trade away for a better schedule or price.
The kind of stay you enjoy
Describe what makes a hotel work for you: location, style, amenities or a particular atmosphere. “Near the meeting, with a quiet room” helps more than “a nice hotel,” because it points to a decision you can later inspect.
A sample brief to adapt
I’m leaving from home for a Tuesday meeting at this address. I need to arrive before noon. I prefer a nonstop and a later start, but I’m open to another airport if the whole journey works better. For the hotel, prioritize being near the meeting over a large room.
This is an illustrative prompt, not an actual booking request. It gives an agent constraints, preferences and permission to consider alternatives without requiring access to past travel.
Review what the results reveal
Your first search can help you discover what matters. Perhaps the price difference is smaller than expected, making the simpler journey attractive. Perhaps a hotel photo makes you realize that style matters more on this trip.
Jett’s broader result list and personal scores out of 10 support that exploration. Flight time bars, hotel photos and maps make the possibilities easier to compare, while sorting and filtering let you focus the view.
Share a revised preference when the initial ranking misses something important. The objective is a decision that reflects this trip, rather than an obligation to accept the first recommendation.
Add history only if it helps you
Jett’s marketing describes optional email and calendar connections for bringing in past travel and upcoming plans. It also describes forwarding travel confirmations as another way to bring trips together.
Those are choices about how you supply context. You can start with questions and conversation, then decide whether another source would be useful. A past booking is also not always a permanent preference: a work requirement or family obligation may have shaped it.

A common question
Do I need to connect email or calendar to use Jett’s personalization?
No. Jett’s stated approach allows you to answer questions and share preferences directly. Connections provide another source of context when you choose to use them.
