This is amazing but is it the kind of business that can last for more than a few hundred thousand users? At a certain point people get none of the free deals, because too many are trying to book at once, right?
- bkidwell 9y agoThat's a great question. At a certain point... yes. But I think that number is much higher than a few hundred thousand users. If you think about departure cities X destination cities X available dates and times X number of seats, the number is huge. I'm not saying it won't happen, but I think we have a long ways to go before we reach that level.
- juskrey 9y agoWhile flight industry is booming, almost nothing matters - just keep telling people they can fly cheap. Dozens of aggregators are already doing this.

- DerfNet 9y agoYeah, if they're pulling $5/mo from each premium subscriber, that's... well, some pretty easy math. They could put a cap on the userbase if they wanted and still be pulling millions per month just off subscriptions, not even accounting for ad revenue.

- Toast_ 9y agoPretty crazy that they're pulling that much revenue without even using affiliate links.
- beejiu 9y agoOn the other hand, does it matter how long the business lasts? It seemingly has minimal costs and is making bank.
