So, you don’t have to go to various travel agents or airline websites. Plus, if you need any travel inspiration, we are more than happy to shower it on you. When you need travel advice and news, we’ve got you covered.
The Skyscanner story

Here are few of our features our users love:
1. We are free and unbiased
Over 50 million travellers across the globe trust us to help them find the cheapest air tickets, hotel rates and car hire prices. Are you one of them? We are unbiased as we don’t sell stuff. Once you select your flight, your payment is processed by the selected airline or travel agent. We do not have access to personal details and booking information as your bookings are made directly by the entity you are transferred to. To read more on how Skyscanner works, click here.

2. We can show you the cheapest destinations through ‘Everywhere search’
If travelling tops your bucket list this year and you are open to options, you will love this feature. All you need to do is decide the month of your travel and leave the rest to us. On the homepage, feed in the departure location and the month of travel. Under ‘To’, select ‘Can’t decide where? Click here to search Everywhere’ and voila!
3. We help you find the cheapest day to fly
If you have a destination in mind but are open to fly anytime in the next few months, use our ‘Cheapest month’ tool that will help you pick a date when the airfare is the cheapest. You only need to fill in the desired departure and arrival points. Instead of filling in specific dates, select the ‘Cheapest month’ option. Once you hit the Search flights option, you will be able to see the air fares for the entire month in calendar or chart format. Try the Cheapest Month tool here.
4. We tell you when to book your tickets
Who doesn’t love booking air tickets when they are the cheapest? But since air fares are so volatile, tracking them is time consuming and tiresome. However, with our ‘Price Alerts’ you need not do any of it. Once you have put in the exact airports and travel dates, you need to click on the ‘Get Price Alerts’ button and enter your email id. We will send you an email each time your chosen flight price changes to show you the increase or decrease.
5. We help you find Business Class airfares smoothly
Whether you are a regular business class traveller or are always on the hunt for affordable business class tickets just for experiencing it once, Skyscanner is here to help. We help you select from Economy, Premium Economy, Business Class and First Class options while checking out airfares. Once you select business class, you will see all the options available on airlines that offer business class seats on your selected route. Currently, Skyscanner allows you browse premium class fares only when you enter a specific destination and travel dates. This feature will soon work with all our user-friendly tools like the Whole Month and Year search, searches To and From Whole Countries, and even to searches from ‘Everywhere’.
6. We make multi-city air fare searches simple
If you are in the mood to globetrot this summer but are dreading all the pain involved in the multiple air bookings, don’t worry. With Skyscanner, you can book multiple flights in a jiffy. Our multi-city feature helps you select multiple locations with one simple search. It will only take you a few clicks to book the cheapest and most convenient flights to various locations. Once you choose ‘Multi-city’ while selecting your flights, you can select up to six legs of your journey in one go, without being constrained to a single continent.
