You can now find cheap flights with this new feature
Google has just rolled out a new feature for its Google Flights service to help users get the best flight deals. Now, you can spend less time searching and more time planning your next adventure without breaking the bank.
In a recent blog post, the company noted that while flight suggestions typically prioritize cost and convenience, this new option caters to those willing to trade some convenience for lower prices.
The feature appears under a tab labelled "Cheapest", allowing users to browse and select more affordable flights. This section will include a mix of direct airline prices, lower-cost options from third parties, and suggestions for flights to nearby airports if applicable.
However, users should be aware of potential inconveniences, as cheaper options may involve longer layovers, self-transfers, or booking different legs of a trip through various sites. But if you’re open to these trade-offs, this feature could be a great fit.
The "Cheapest" feature will soon be available in all regions where Google Flights operates. According to Google's announcement, it began rolling out this week and is expected to be fully accessible within two weeks.
With reports from CNBC claiming that airline ticket prices have jumped by as much as 25% in recent years, this feature couldn’t come at a better time.
With the holiday season just around the corner, more people are gearing up to travel. Thanksgiving and Christmas are some of the busiest times of the year, and as these holidays approach, many will be on the lookout for budget-friendly ways to get around.
