On October 16, Google unveiled a new feature designed to assist travellers in finding the most economical airfare via Google Flights: the “Cheapest” tab.
Unlocking Savings: A New Approach
The new “Cheapest” tab on Google Flights makes budget options easy to find. When budget-conscious users input their travel details, they can select this tab to explore more affordable options that may not initially appear at the top of search results. Prioritizing savings over flight convenience, the “Cheapest” tab lists routes through third-party booking sites or return flights from different airports within the same city.
Flexibility for Greater Value
With the “Cheapest” tab, passengers can discover flights that offer significant savings but require flexibility, such as longer layovers or purchasing separate journey legs through various airlines or booking sites.
As holiday planning begins, the “Cheapest” update enhances the opportunity to maximize travel expenses efficiently. The best prices for domestic flights around Thanksgiving and Christmas are usually listed at the end of October, making this timeframe ideal for securing holiday travel arrangements.
