Flight comparison website Kiwi.com is relaunching its Travelling Salesman Challenge for 2018, after more than 250 teams entered the competition last year.

The competition tasks coders with finding the cheapest route between particular regions, using data supplied from Kiwi.com.

Entries are made online and the winning team’s algorithm will be built into Kiwi.com’s recently launched multi-city planning feature NOMAD. The winners will get a round-the-world trip, second prize is €1000; third prize is €600 and winning teams will be invited to meet the Kiwi leadership team at its HQ in Brno in the Czech Republic

Applications for the Travelling Salesman Challenge 2018 are accepted here, with more details on the website. The closing date is October 29th.
