Flight Finder

If you are looking for the cheapest possible return trip to a particular destination on a fixed date, it would be wise to check multiple websites because different websites have different prices. Luckily FlightsFinder has made this task easy by providing you with a convenient dashboard that allows you to compare all the best search engines side by side. We search KAYAK, Skyscanner, Jetradar, momondo, Cheapflights, Kiwi, and more, effectively searching over 1200 different sources for flights to make sure you get the very best deal. To prove this, you can do a simple test, go to your favourite website, fetch the lowest price then compare it with our search engine tabs. We are highly confident we will beat or equal the price you can find anywhere else.

The number one factor which affects your flight price is the dates you choose to fly on. The more flexible you are with your flight dates, the cheaper your flight can be. Thankfully, our Flight Finder has a powerful, flexible dates flight tool. This tool allows you to see the cheapest return flight 3 days before or after your chosen dates, the entire month, or even the entire year. For example, if you wanted to fly to New York from London in May, It could set you back by about £350. However, if you used our flexible search, it will tell you that if you traveled in February, the price would be around £212. The best way to find a flight that suits you is to play around with the flexible calendar function and see what comes up.

A flight comparison site, flight aggregator, or metasearch engine is a website that utilises complex technology to compare flights from multiple data sources. For Example, Skyscanner is one of the most popular cheap flight comparison sites on earth. They work by combining the APIs of many travel agents and then sorting the results so viewers can see the cheapest options quickly. To this date, there is no single comparison site that is entirely comprehensive; this is because different places tend to form various partnerships and search different data sources. A quick comparison of the comparison sites reveals that prices vary drastically between them. The best way to ensure the cheapest flight is to check multiple sites via our flight finder dashboard. 

'Meta-Meta flight search'® is a unique term trademarked by FlightsFinder to describe our search engine accurately. It means searching multiple search engines or comparison sites to find the cheapest flights online—a single comparison site in the travel industry is known as a meta-search engine. Because our site compares multiple meta-search engines with one query, we proudly represent ourselves as the world's first 'Meta-Meta flight search'® engine. It is necessary to query a selection of the world's best flight meta-search engines to find the cheapest flights as prices can vary drastically between them. You have the potential of saving up to 20% off your airline ticket by simply comparing multiple search engines, and we have made this easy via our unique 'Meta-Meta flight search'® dashboard.

The first thing to note is that FlightsFinder has no control over the flight prices on display. We aggregate the best third-party flight search engines on one platform. It is similar to Google in that sense; we display information found by others. However, the flights that our metasearch engine partners provide are usually very accurate. There may be the odd occasion where a flight is no longer available on click-through - or a flight that was listed has now gone up in price. We recommend that if such a thing was to occur, click another search engine tab on our dashboard and look for an alternate flight.

In our opinion, the best sites to find cheap flights are flight comparison sites. You could go to a Travel agent like Lastminute.com or Expedia, but you don't get as many options as you do on a flight comparison site. For example, a simple search on Expedia for a round trip flight from London to Dubai in August returned the lowest price of £313. The exact search done on FlightsFinder found a cheaper flight via Skyscanner for £115. The simple answer is no search engine is best for finding cheap flights every time - your best bet is to search a few of the best flight search engines via our convenient flight finder dashboard.

To find the cheapest possible flight to your destination, you need two things. 1.) to be flexible with your dates, and 2.) Check multiple flight aggregators. You can do this easily by using our robust, flexible date calendar, which gives you an idea of prices for the entire month or year. Then compare search engines on those days that the flights are cheapest (using our dashboard) and save even more of your ticket (even up to 20%). This strategy will practically guarantee you find the cheapest flight on earth.

To find the cheapest flight to a particular country, you need to enter a broad search in our recent deals carousel engine. FlightsFinder allows you to search from country to country to discover the cheapest route, for example - the United Kingdom to India. Our recent deals carousel search will show you the most affordable airlines and flights between the two countries. You can also do a broad city-to-country search such as London to China or Manchester to Thailand - this will give you the cheapest flight to the most affordable route between that city and country. You can find our recent deals carousel below the leading search engine form:

If you wish to find the cheapest flight price to a particular city, enter your departure airport to the required city destination, e.g. London to Rome - then select flexible dates. You can choose flights for the whole month or even the entire year to discover the best time to fly.

In airline terms, there are seasons known as peak seasons, when fares are at their highest, and off-peak seasons or 'shoulder seasons', when flights are cheaper. Seasons vary from country to country; for example, the hot summer months in Dubai, where temperatures can reach a blistering 50 degrees centigrade, would fall in the off-peak season. Alternately, snow resorts have their peak season in the winter months when the weather conditions are ideal for skiing. Generally speaking, for Europe and the USA, summertime is the busiest season to travel in, and fares tend to drop after September. The best way to find the cheapest time to fly is to use our flexible date calendars. Our calendars will show you which month is the most affordable to travel in the entire year. 

Other strategies to find cheaper flights include booking your flight and hotel together if you also require accommodation. Sometimes agents bundle prices together, leading to a discount, so it's always worth checking that out on our flight and hotel search page. Another option is flying into a close-by city to your intended destination; if it's a cheaper city to fly into, then take a road trip to your desired destination. You can check various open-jaw options using our multi-city or one-way flights page. This way, you may save a bit plus take in the sights of another city to boot. Also, make sure you maximise your frequent flyer programme so you can access discounted flights. Finally, we recommend you start looking for a flight about 54 days before departure. Leaving it to the last minute is risky and could lead to price increases and less availability of airline tickets.
