Approaches for determining scheduling assignments for the movement of people along a multi-segment path from a starting location to a destination location, are used to manage crowds, predict crowd behavior, and mitigate crowd turbulence. For example, to mitigate crowd congestion, routing solutions specifying an amount of time to spend at a destination and a departure time can be provided. Itinerary assignments, crowd data, and data associated with an event can be analyzed and weighted to determine scheduling assignments. Scheduling assignments can be validated against current crowd data and event data. Current crowd data and event data and crowd simulation can be used to predict future crowd behavior or crowd problems. Scheduling assignments can be rescheduled to mitigate crowd problems or emergencies.

Computing devices, systems, and methods for automatically prompting a foreign currency transaction by detecting a trip end condition associated with a registered user with respect to travel to a foreign location associated with a foreign currency. The methods and system may further determine that the registered user has a remaining foreign currency balance, and, as a result, may identify and send to the registered user's mobile device at least one option for using the remaining foreign currency balance. The at least one option may be a merchant offer from a merchant located in the area of the mobile device or may include an option to exchange the foreign currency for another currency. The trip end condition may be detected by determining that the registered user and/or user's mobile device is at an international departure location. The currency exchange may be with another registered user.

A system may include processor(s), a memory in communication with the processor(s), and storing instructions, that when executed by the processor(s), are configured to cause the system to prevent unnecessary payments. The system may receive a signal indicative of an event in which a user device associated with a user enters a geofenced area associated with a merchant. The system may identify a merchant category code (MCC) associated with the merchant, and determine whether benefit(s) related to the MCC are associated with account(s) of the user. The system may receive an attempted purchase associated with the merchant, and may determine whether the attempted purchase relates to the benefit(s). The system may automatically block the attempted purchase related to the benefit(s) and associated with the user, and may transmit a message to the user via the user device, the message providing the benefit(s).

A method to form the travel policy for an organization can include using feedback from a user selecting travel reservations annotated with the travel policy to continuously modify the travel policy. The travel policy can be improved to provide the organization with a control of the travel expenditures, together with an advanced knowledge of the travel reservations of the users. In addition, the travel policy can give the users the freedom to select the travel reservations that are most suitable to the users and also acceptable by the corporation.

A flight reservation can be made on behalf of a traveller based on determining that there is no initial profile stored for the traveller or the profile is incomplete, loading a ghost profile comprising information associated with a customer on whose behalf the traveller will be traveling, and storing in a travel record the information associated with the customer. Information drawn from the ghost profile can be used to populate fields in a Passenger Name Record and a booking made.
