- Skyscanner - safe to buy tickets??? - Rick Steves
You don't purchase tickets from skyscanner You find prices on skyscanner, which then sends you to an external site to buy the tickets directly from the airline It's just like Kayak As for the price difference, it's just because the price that you saw was old and no longer available Airline prices can change by the minute
- Was it a big mistake to buy an airline ticket from Skyscanner
I've used Skyscanner in the past and it's been fine People warn against booking through such sites, because it's easier to deal with a problem, if one arises, if you've booked directly with the airline But that doesn't mean that the site is bad or a scam
- Possible silly question about Skyscanner - Rick Steves
I always book directly with airlines too, but I like to get a sense of prices and schedules using Momondo, Skyscanner, etc And yes, I'm probably jumping the gun a bit on getting tickets Wife and I did not go to Europe this summer for the first time in a few years, and we really are missing it So now I'm micro-planning for next May
- Skyscanner Success! - Rick Steves Travel Forum
Skyscanner is a website, kind of like KAYAK but offering cheaper connecting flights We also wanted to spend 4 days in Paris before starting our tour Imagine the following airline plans: French Bee to Paris, Air Italia to Palermo, Ryan Air from Cantania to Rome, West Jet to Calgary, Alaska Airlines to Portland, OR
- Multi-city vs two one way tickets - Rick Steves Travel Forum
What is the general advantage of booking multi-city instead of two one way tickets I was on Skyscanner, used multi-city, and chose booking with the airline It then recommended I book the two flights separately anyway Is this an airline thing? Airline is TAP EDIT: Thanks for the input, everyone Helpful info
- eDreams - Rick Steves Travel Forum
I used Skyscanner which takes you to about 5 booking companies Normally, RyanAir is one of them, but in this case, they were not listed so I chose eDreams The charge is pending as RyanAir blocked them - I'm worried I will be held accountable for the charge even if I don't verifiy with RyanAir
- Skyscanner Website - Rick Steves Travel Forum
Yes, Skyscanner is legit It's possible that what you might be seeing with the difference in pricing is that the prices Skyscanner quotes have "expired " I've run into that before You run a scan, get a price, and then go to purchase and when it tries to verify the price it quoted, you can't get it
- Google Flights, Kayak, or ? or ? Which is better - Rick Steves
Kayak is owned by the parent company of Priceline Skyscanner is Chinese owned Google Flights makes most of its money by selling the software to airlines and travel companies and a small amount from bookings Kayak and Skyscanner make their money from ticket sales via their website
