which site do you use for cheapest flight prices?

Options
i came across this site https://www.byojet.co.uk/ via travel comparison website and wondered if anybody here had used their website before? i tend to search flights on skyscanner, but curious if there are even cheaper websites.

i am looking to book a holiday in california for xmas and so far byojet.co.uk have prices of £630 for a return flight via british airways. be good to hear your opinions on what sites you use.

    I use Matrix ITA for price comparisons and then I book direct from the airline I will be using.

    Never used BYOjet, they seem to be an Australian agent that was acquired by Flight Centre.

    Will second Matrix ITA (owned by Google)

    it's very good for finding the lowest 'published' fares although you cannot book flights through it.
    It does not show special unpublished/consolidator fares which you may come across from various online agents.

    .

    You can book (some) flights direct from ITA Matrix, but its not straightforward and may not be worth the time / effort involved (alternatively, it could be and you could save much mullah)
    Booking direct from ITAMatrix
    & Finessing booking direct with ITAMatrix

    it worked for me and I got an itinerary booked that I couldn't replicate elsewhere, at a price that made me VERY happy :j:beer:
