Predict The Flight Ticket Price Hackathon
About This Hackathon
<p>Flight ticket prices are often hard to predict. One day, you might see a price, and by the next day, it’s an entirely different story. Travelers frequently lament how unpredictable flight ticket prices can be. Well, it’s time to change that!</p><p>As data scientists, we embrace the challenge: with the right data, anything can be predicted. In this task, you will analyze flight ticket prices for various airlines between March and June of 2019, covering flights between multiple cities.</p><h3>Dataset Overview:</h3><ul><li><strong>Training Set Size</strong>: 10,683 records</li><li><strong>Test Set Size</strong>: 2,671 records</li></ul><h3>Features:</h3><ol><li><strong>Airline</strong>: The name of the airline.</li><li><strong>Date_of_Journey</strong>: The date of the journey.</li><li><strong>Source</strong>: The origin of the flight.</li><li><strong>Destination</strong>: The final destination of the flight.</li><li><strong>Route</strong>: The route taken by the flight to reach the destination.</li><li><strong>Dep_Time</strong>: The departure time from the source.</li><li><strong>Arrival_Time</strong>: The time of arrival at the destination.</li><li><strong>Duration</strong>: The total duration of the flight.</li><li><strong>Total_Stops</strong>: The number of stops between the source and destination.</li><li><strong>Additional_Info</strong>: Any extra information about the flight.</li><li><strong>Price</strong>: The ticket price (target variable).</li></ol><p>Your challenge is to use this data to build models that can predict flight ticket prices accurately.<br><br><strong>Evaluation Metric:</strong></p><figure class="image"><img src="data:image/png;base64,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"></figure>
