Search Engine for Cheap Flights

I'd like to add a site to the recommended cheap flights sites.

It's called "Skyscanner", but as I'm new to posting here, I'm not allowed to post a link, so you'll have to Google it!

What I like about it is that, firstly, it's a ".net" site which means it should be "not for profit". Secondly, instead of specific dates, you have a "show whole month" option which produces an easy to read bar chart showing the cheapest dates at a glance, without having to keep putting alternative dates in to seeif you can find something cheaper.

Hover your mouse over one of the bars and a popup gives you details including airline & flight times.

To book, click on the bar(s) for the dates you have chosen and you should be taken directly to the airline's booking site.

Also, it's world-wide so you could book several legs of an itinerary and even return to a different airport!


Hope this is of interest,

Hyperion.
