Kiwi — my personal favorite flight search engine. I like using Kiwi a lot as it has many advanced search tools. Kiwi also offers results no other search engine has, because it is able to combine separate single tickets into one fare, which can be cheaper than a return with the same airline. Google Flights, Skyscanner, and Momondo usually link to third-party websites where you can actually book the tickets. Kiwi acts as an agent itself, so you can book tickets on their own website, making the process a bit simpler.
As you may already know, flexibility is key when it comes to finding cheap flights. The less attached you are to particular dates, airlines, or airports to fly into, the cheaper you can fly. If you already know your origin and destination, you can increase your chances of finding a good deal by including nearby airports.
This used to be a tedious manual process. If you already know roughly when you want to travel, then changing your departure and return by just a few days can give you huge savings. Again, finding this out used to be a manual affair. You had to try loads of dates and keep a billion browser tabs open.
After all, some destinations are highly seasonal , with flights becoming easily twice as expensive in certain months. A great example is the month of August all throughout Europe, when many people take their summer holiday and prices go through the roof. Going in the shoulder or off-season can save you a ton of money.
This is the only thing that Kiwi is not yet so good at telling you. I recommend jumping to Momondo briefly to find this out. Momondo has a cool feature called Flight Insight , which lets you take a deep dive into the cost variables for a particular route.
This is a much more powerful search feature than a normal Multi-Stop search. With Nomad search simply enter the places you want to go, select roughly how long you want to stay there, and Kiwi will take care of the rest. It will figure out the ideal time, order, and flight paths to get you the cheapest possible total package.
A layover is a short stay in a transfer city on your way to your final destination. Besides potentially giving you cheaper fares, I think layovers are really fun to add to your trip. You get to sample a different destination on your way somewhere else, adding variety to your trip.
For example, on my way to Thailand I once added a great layover in Beijing, and on my way to Georgia I added one in Istanbul. You can also try a multi-stop itinerary with this city added in. Two one-way trips with different airlines can sometimes be cheaper than a normal return with one airline. This is why I like using Kiwi, as this search engine finds such favorable ticket combinations.
They have all the Icelandic music in a very cute two storey wooden house on the street that leads up to the big church. Another location is at the concert hall Harpa, but if you want to sit down and listen to all the records while they serve you coffee and carry you suggestions what you might like, then go to the original location.
