I’ve had Going (formerly Scott’s Cheap Flights) for several years now. I’ve gotten some decent bookings out of it, but IMO it’s really only worth it if you’re the kind of person who makes impulse travel purchases. The deals there can be really great (I just saw a $375 ticket to Peru from the USA which is less than half the usual price), but they only appear for a day or two. I’ve found the easiest way to get a good price when you have set or barely flexible travel dates is to do the following:
- go to Google Flights
- look at the price history
- find the lowest price for your dates
- pick some nominal percentage above the floor like 10-15%
- watch the flight on google flights (you get an email every time the price changes)
- buy the ticket once it hits that range.
Works every time for me. I don’t see massive price differences between Kayak Google Flights etc either
