Searching flights

How live flight search works and what the results mean.

Running a search

Flights unlocks after the Flights module in Learn. Enter origin, destination, dates, and party size. Results come from live inventory, not a cached table.

Reading results

  • Stops drive quality more than airline brand for most travelers.
  • Prices are per person unless stated otherwise.
  • Results are held briefly. Re-search before you quote anything more than a few hours old.

Common failures

  • Dates in the past return an error. Check the year.
  • Very small airports may need the nearest hub instead.

Frequently asked questions

Airline inventory moves in real time. Always re-confirm the fare before the traveler commits.
