Hi there,

I’m Lauren, a co-founder of Flightfox. Just getting in touch because I noticed you didn’t launch your flight contest.

Why on earth would you pay for flight search?

Because our Experts • save 27% on average for international flights• know all the tricks of the flight industry• can answer any question you’ve ever wondered about flying

What if the Experts don’t beat the best price you’ve already found?

We refund the fee if our experts can’t beat your best price. Not only your best price, but your best price less the finder’s fee.

Can’t you find the best flights yourself?

Maybe, if you’ve spent years in the flight industry. Otherwise, you’ll be amazed at what our experts can do. Many use tools and systems otherwise unknown to the general public. They can even save you thousands if you are fully flexible.
