The Travelling Guardian

June 8, 2019

Project Term: Winter 2019
BIT and BTM students worked with The Travelling Guardian to improve the companion booking experience on The Travelling Guardian website along with companion price estimates, traveller resources, and terminal maps.

Seniors, children, and disabled and mobility impaired individuals can face a burden making air travel alone difficult if not impossible. Entrepreneur and The Travelling Guardian principal Carla McDonald offers travel companionship services to ease the burden.

The students implemented the following updates on The Travelling Guardian web site:

  • Estimation Plugin
  • Resources Page
  • Website Translation
  • Booking Calendar
  • Terminal Map
  • Private Notepad

The updated web site is now available: https://thetravellingguardian.com/
