LG Electronics and Skyscanner Partner to Bring Smart Travel Planning to Living Rooms

Planning an upcoming vacation just got easier for smart TV owners, thanks to a fresh collaboration between tech giant LG Electronics and global travel marketplace Skyscanner.

The companies announced that Skyscanner will power the travel data for LG Travel+, a specialized application built into LG’s webOS-powered smart TVs. Designed for armchair travelers, the platform offers immersive, high-definition visual content that allows users to discover and explore destinations from the comfort of their living rooms. The free app is currently available on LG smart TVs running webOS 6.0 and later.

Under this partnership, LG Travel+ will feature destination imagery, local maps, and seasonal guides directly on its main interface. Users can bookmark their favorite locations for future inspiration while browsing the high-resolution displays.

What sets the update apart is its seamless booking integration. By utilizing Skyscanner's API, the app displays real-time estimated airfares right on the home screen. When users spot a flight or destination that catches their eye, they can simply scan an on-screen QR code with their mobile device to jump straight to the Skyscanner booking page.

The newly integrated features rolled out simultaneously on November 10 across four major markets: South Korea, the United States, the United Kingdom, and Germany. Both companies have indicated plans to expand the service to additional regions in the near future, bridging the gap between passive visual entertainment and active vacation planning.
