Farecast new tool promises to provide best airline prices
Farecast.com, the airfare prediction website, announced the launch of Farecast Deals, a new service that leverages the science of airfare data and advanced analytics to provide consumers a usable and authentic approach to airfare deals.
“No other travel website helps consumers know what is a deal and why to buy now when shopping for cheap flights,” the company said.
Farecast daily utilizes billions of airfares to provide its free airfare predictions, and now uses this data to help consumers uncover cheap tickets from their airport.
“Any website can claim to have the best deals, but many of those deals are based on marketing, not science,” said Hugh Crean, Farecast’s president and chief executive officer.
“Farecast.com is the only travel website that uses the power of over 175 billion airfares to help consumers understand what is truly a good deal and why to buy now.”
Farecast says it finds the best deals backed by comparisons against millions of airfares the company has analyzed from each airport. Farecast: says a consumer would need to conduct up to 50,000 individual searches to find all of the deals we find each day from their city
“We’ve seen in the data that low fare deals often have a very short shelf life and typically expire within 48 hours,” said Jay Bartot, vice president of engineering.
Farecast currently offers deals from the top 26 cities in the several categories including weekends, last minute trips, week-long trips, family getaways and top deals.
