Expedia Tech Now Analyzes More Than 2 Million Flights a Day, Sourcing New Deals for Travelers in Real-Time <\/strong><\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Expedia\u00ae today announced a new money-saving tool for deal-seekers: Flight Deals. This new feature available exclusively on the app is a customizable deals feed that surfaces fares that are at least 20% cheaper than the typical estimated price. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Expedia Flight Deals is different because it is constantly analyzing millions of flights to find deals that meet a minimum value and quality bar. Deals are identified using historical data and other price context factors and then run through a quality check that filters out fares that have more than one stop or super-long layovers.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Located in the app under the \u201cSearch\u201d tab, Flight Deals offers an open-ended way to search for flights. Just select a home airport and instantly browse flight deals to places worldwide, with estimated price differences for the fares highlighted in the feed. Travelers can filter the deals they see by destination and travel date, and they can further personalize their experience by creating custom deal alerts.1<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhat’s unique about Flight Deals is the transparency and insight we\u2019re giving travelers into the flight prices they’re seeing,\u201d said Josh Templin, vice president of product for Expedia Group. \u201cWe’re using proprietary machine learning technology to analyze millions of flights daily and dozens of price-influencing factors, and we’re sharing that information with travelers so they can make better-informed travel decisions. The result is a tool that makes it easier to get inspired, plan a trip and feel good about the deal you booked.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n
