Skyscanner: How to find cheap flights and choose the cheapest trip

A platform to compare flights, hotels and car rentals

Finding cheap flights and organizing a trip in a simple way is today one of the main needs of Travellers. On Skyscanner, over 100 million users search for airline tickets, hotels and car rentals every month, comparing prices, travel solutions and suppliers in a single platform.

Save time and choose the right offer

The search engine saves time and money by helping the traveler find the fastest flight, the most convenient combination, or the stay that best suits their needs. The ratings left by Real Travellers also allow you to choose the most reliable airline, travel agency, hotel or supplier with greater awareness.

Search for flights to any destination with "Everywhere"

One of the most useful features for those looking for travel inspiration is the "Everywhere" option. By entering this search mode, it is possible to discover destinations all over the world and find low-cost flights even when you do not yet have a precise destination. It is a practical solution for those who want to leave, explore new places or choose the destination based on the cheapest price.

Finding the cheapest time to fly

For those who have already decided where to go, the portal also offers the "Cheapest month" option, designed to identify the best time to fly. This feature shows the days with the lowest fares, helping the passenger choose the most convenient date to purchase the flight ticket.

Monitor rates with price alerts

Another useful tool is the price alert. By activating it, the traveler can monitor the trend of fares for a given route and receive updates via email or push notification on the app when the price goes up or down.

Also compare the CO₂ emissions of flights

The platform also displays, when available, information on the CO₂ emissions of flights. Since this feature was introduced, more than 100 million Travellers have chosen a flight ticket for a flight with reduced emissions compared to other options available on the same route.

Book on the airline or supplier's website

Skyscanner operates as a search and comparison engine. After finding the most suitable flight, the traveler is redirected to the airline or travel provider's website to complete the booking. At this stage, you can add any loyalty program information, choose extra services, and select options such as a seat.

Who to contact after booking

The booking confirmation, ticket and all operational information are then sent directly by the airline or travel agency of your choice. For changes, cancellations or requests after booking, the passenger must therefore contact the supplier with whom he purchased the trip directly.

A useful tool for more flexible travel

With tools such as "Everywhere", "Cheapest month", price alerts and emissions comparison, Skyscanner confirms itself as a useful platform for planning trips flexibly, comparing available alternatives and finding more convenient solutions for flying.
