Microsoft launches Bing Travel Search Engine
Bing was recently launched by Microsoft as a replacement of MSN search but apart from its regular search engine functionality, Bing also offers flights and hotel search, airfare price and comparison and predictions, travel deals and travellers community that offers news and travel advisories.
Bing Travel was a combination of search and travel tools following the Microsofts acquisition of Farecast from MSN travel
Launched last June 3,2009 – Microsoft calls this new Travel Search as a “Decision Engine” since it aims to help travelers to make better decision on where to go and where to stay.
According to a recent survey by Microsoft’s Bing Travel, 52% of online travel searchers compare three or more travel reservation sites before booking their accommodation and airfare. Bing Travel aims to provide faster and comprehensive results in one search result in order to help customers decide faster with confidence.
Currently, Bing’s “Airfare Deals Search” section only prioritize U.S. flights but as promised, each search provides wide aray of options as well as discounts. Bing Travel is available for travelers at http://www.bing.com/travel.

i have been evaluating the search results of Microsoft Bing compared to Google and they are comparable. Bing gives almost the same relevant search results just like Google.
i have been using the BING search engine for a couple of weeks. it seems to be as good as Google but for some reason i would still want to stick with Google search engine –
i am using both Bing and Google and i think both search engines give relevant search results. i would still prefer Google though, because it gives a little bit more relevant search results than Bing.
BING search engine is just as good as Google. In my own personal experience, Google does give more releveant search result than Bing but the difference is very small. **
my default search engine is Yahoo but now i am using BING because it is much better than Yahoo. i heard that Bing search engine would power Yahoo search also.
I use both Bing and Google search engine and i dont see much difference in their search results. I use google for searching hard to find academic topics and Bing for general search.
