Facelift: We've Had Some Work Done!
Click on over to Airfarewatchdog.com and you'll see a whole new, easier to read look. Plus we've redesigned our fare details pages, which we hope you'll find easier to navigate.
We've also added City to City alerts, for those only interested in flying between certain cities. How does that work? When a fare is at a level that we consider a "buy" on a given route, like say New York to Los Angeles, we'll send you notification. And unlike other sites, we'll include promo code fares, and deals on all airlines, including Southwest, JetBlue, Skybus, Allegiant and those wacky Spirit 2 cent deals.
And we'll do the same thing for your international destinations too. Just interested in visiting, say, Berlin? Want to see fares from every city in the US or Canada to Berlin that's cheap to fly from? You got it. So now, if St. Louis to Berlin costs $900 RT and Chicago to Berlin is $400 RT, you can make an informed buying decision.
And of course, we still offer our usual daily, frequent, and weekly newsletters with all fares from your designated airport.
