What CheapOair lacks in neat and intuitive site design, though, it more than makes up for by providing a ton of useful features. Once you plug in your departure location and destination, dates, and other parameters, you will be inundated with just about every bit of information that you could ever need (and then some) when it comes to picking the best flight for you.
At the top of the search results page, you will find a quick table that compares the cheapest flights based on whether they have 1 stop or more than 1 stop. This table is an incredibly convenient way to instantly check prices of one airline against another – something that other cheap flight sites leave up to you, which results in a lot of scrolling up and down and notetaking. I love that CheapOair does this work for me, letting me see the breakdown as soon as I search for my flight.
Then, as other flight booking sites tend to do, CheapOair also delivers you the best deals based on specific categories. They search for and deliver the cheapest flight, the shortest flight, flights available for cheaper on alternate dates, flights at nearby airports, and the CheapOair recommended flight (optimized based on your requirements, duration, minimal layovers, etc.).
As far as filters are concerned, you can narrow your search results by specific airlines, connecting airport options, nearby arrival airports, nearby departure airports, dates, duration, and number of spots. The whole process is wonderfully streamlined and easy, resulting in one of the most powerful flight metasearch engines on the web.
