this looks very cool.
recently I was visiting LA.
It was cheaper for me to book a ticket to Vegas via LA and just not take the LA -> Vegas step than just to have a flight to LA alone.
@_jacksmith While that is true, we do not skip flights (unlike Skiplagged). We get a layover where the cost of the trip when you take all trips on the itinerary is cheaper. A big reason on why we are able to do this is that we do not constrain ourselves to airline alliances. So, we are able to find the cheapest flight overall and also use low cost carriers.
One thing I really like about Google Flights is the ability to check which outbound / return dates are the cheapest (works well if you're flexible). What's your take on that - is it something you'll implement over time?
I personally love long trips - so a layover on some airport where I can read a book in silence while earning the extra miles seems like a great idea!
Unrelated question (hopefully somebody knows): what's the best CC to take if you want to save miles éxtra fast?
I'm in love with this: it's my favorite HBS project for FIELD3. Combine two different roundtrip airfares with a "clever layover" to get there more cheaply.
