Abstract

Systems and methods for generating transit trips between an origin and a destination are provided. Searches can be undertaken to identify optimal departure times from a source station and/or one or more intermediate stations while maintaining a lowest cost arrival time at a destination station. In this manner, public transportation journey schedules for routes can be determined and recommendations can be provided even if different journey schedules show identical costs.
