The problem of searching customized and cost effective itinerary is a team orienting problem (TOP), well known NP-Complete Problem. Here two stage processing system is designed for lowering cost. In first stage i. e. Preprocessing stage which is offline, single day itineraries are precomputed via MapReduce jobs. In second phase which is online, an approximate search is used to obtain multiple day itineraries by combining multiple single day itineraries.
