September is here, bringing the return to routine for many. Already daydreaming of your next getaway? A Skyscanner survey shows 42% of French travelers think about upcoming trips to soften the back-to-school transition. To spark that wanderlust, Skyscanner launched Facescanner—a clever tool that analyzes your selfie to recommend the ideal destination.
Here's how it works: Visit the dedicated platform on your computer or phone, upload a selfie, and let the facial recognition magic happen. It examines micro-expressions like pupil size, eyebrow position, eyelids, and lips to gauge your happiness, curiosity, and even fear levels. Based on this, it suggests a tailored destination, complete with a quick city overview and a Skyscanner link to book flights.
Our team tested it firsthand—it's a delightful diversion, though not scientifically precise (smiling shifts the results). Yet, it brilliantly spotlights destinations you might otherwise miss. When's your next escape?
