Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, completely free. We earn a small affiliate commission from airlines and online travel agencies when you book through our links — at no extra cost to you. This is standard practice in the travel industry and allows us to operate without charging users.

We use a combination of aggregated search data, error fare monitoring, and editorial expertise. Our blog covers strategies like skiplagging, positioning flights, and business class error fares that most travelers never hear about. For direct search, we aggregate from 200+ sources.

An error fare is a flight price that is drastically below market value due to a mistake by an airline or travel agency — sometimes $200 roundtrip to Europe in business class. These fares are usually available for only hours or days before being corrected. We monitor for these and publish them on our blog. Read our full error fare guide.

Skiplagging (or "hidden city ticketing") is a strategy where you book a flight with a connection city as your actual destination, exploiting cheaper fares that route through your desired city. Airlines frown on it and it carries risks. Read our detailed guide before considering this strategy.

Yes. We redirect you to book directly with the airline or established OTAs — we don't handle payments ourselves. Always book directly with the airline for the most robust passenger protections. Read our Privacy Policy for how we handle your data.

Affiliate commissions from airlines and OTAs when you click through our links and make a booking. These commissions never increase your price — they're paid by the travel provider, not you. We also sometimes feature sponsored content on our blog, which is always clearly labeled.

Absolutely. Both our search engine and blog are fully responsive and work great on desktop, tablet, and mobile devices.

We don't have a formal price match policy, but if you see a significantly cheaper fare for the same route and dates, let us know — we want to ensure our prices are competitive. Note that some fares have restrictions (change fees, baggage fees) that affect true cost.
