Google Flights

Was messing around trying to find the cheapest flight out there and Google Flights threw me an 8 dollar one way from Seoul to Jeju. Clicked through and the agency site actually showed the same price. Kinda wild. Cheaper than grabbing snacks at a convenience store.

Tried Google’s price tracking on JFK–CDG and it actually worked snagged Air France La Première for $7,400 roundtrip after watching it sit at $12k+. The alert hit about 4 months out and I booked right away. It’s not perfect, missed a BA first class dip I saw elsewhere, and...

Been testing Google Flights alerts for a few months now and LAX–LHR has been my control route. Best deals seem to pop 3–8 weeks out saw a Virgin PE fare drop from $1,289 to $872 just by waiting and catching an early morning alert. Biggest drawback: doesn’t work well for peak...

Tested FLY91’s new September promo on their Goa–Bengaluru flight and confirmed zero booking fees. Saved about 5 dollor compared to SpiceJet, which is a nice break if you’re connecting to a cruise out of Mumbai this winter. They’re still small with only a handful of routes and...

Set price alerts, stayed flexible, and grabbed a random Tue/Wed combo in late May for $512 roundtrip on United. June was showing around $920, so this was a big save. Booked direct; even after a seat fee I still came out ahead. The fare vanished in hours, so alerts helped. Google...

Honestly surprised how solid this list is. Stuff like changing your VPN location to score cheaper airfare or using browser extensions inside Google Flights? That’s some next-level, why-didn’t-I-think-of-that kind of move. Also loved the tip about Airbnb newbies offering lower...

I gotta say, I’m a little surprised to see Providence pop up as one of Google Flights’ top trending domestic spots for summer 2025. Don’t get me wrong, I like Providence good food, nice waterfront, and easy to explore but I wouldn’t have guessed it’d be trending alongside places...
