New SkyScanner launches
The latest version of SkyScanner’s internet flight search engine has been launched.
The free to use site enables users to search across multiple airlines and compare flight prices for all budget airlines that serve the UK and Europe.
SkyScanner claims to now be the most advanced and fastest flight search engine for independent travellers on the internet.
A statement said: “Traditionally, travel sites require users to enter a raft of information before they are shown any flight options at all. With its latest release SkyScanner has redefined flight search.”
The new SkyScanner offers a fast flight search engine, using cached information databases to return results instantaneously. After the user has selected a particular flight, SkyScanner offers a CheckPrice function which verifies the price and availability with the airline website to provide the ‘live’ price in seconds.
Barry Smith, one of the company’s founders, said: “The new SkyScanner enhances user experience, utilising advances in search technology to provide instant, flight price information for cheap European flights.
“It means users have all flight options at their fingertips, without the need for trawling the internet – we have improved usability and also put a lot of work into helping the browser research their trip, displaying prices even if all they know for certain is their departure country.
“With the latest version we have taken online flight search to a new level and plan on continuing pushing the boundaries. We remain committed to unravelling the complexities of independent online travel.”
