If the business stakeholders came out with that scenario, I would modify the prompt like this. You would know the users address if they had an account.

OK, but that only fixed one of the three issues.
While the first one is easy. I mean you could give it a list of holidays and dates. But the rest you would just ask the user to confirm the information and say “is this correct”? If they say “No” ask them which isn’t correct and let them correct it.
I would definitely assume someone wanted to leave from an airport close by if they didn’t say anything.
You don’t want the prompt to grow too much. But you do have analytics that you can use to improve your prompt.
In the case of Connect, you define your logic using a GUi flowchart builder called a contact flow.
BTW: with my new prompt, it did assume the correct airport “<<I want to go to Cuba after Easter>>”
Sure, all the problems are “easy” once you identify them. As with most products. But the majority of Show HN posts here relying on LLMs that I see don’t account for simple things like my example. Flights finders in particular have been pretty bad.

Not really. It chose the airport you put basically in the prompt. But I don’t live in MA, I live closer to PDX. And it didn’t suggest the multiple other Cuba airports. So you’ll end up with a lot of guiding rules.
