Challenges in connecting the journey planners

• linking algorithms – “linking networks”?• Language translators – agreement on basic terminology• Time zones• Linking the real time info

– best choice is not the best – new search to the original source?

• Booking and tickets – Not existing even in all local/national journey planners

• Needs for conversions in the local/national journey planners?• Needs for common interfaces for local/national journey planners?

>> Costs – commitment ?
