It totally depends on the city - in Paris, I've found that's enough time to take the RER transit into the city, have a ~2 hour lunch or walk, and leave with plenty of time to get back. But of course you could also just search for

Noted on New Haven Tweed, good point, thanks. We're still working on upping our coverage of all routes at all times, but for now you'll only see something from NYC to Spain/Portugal if we find something really out of the ordi

Really good points. We're figuring this out as we go along and really didn't anticipate the backlash against Facebook login. As for requiring login at all, we do think personalization is key to the experience and that's the b

Zappos wasn't the first website to sell shoes and Facebook wasn't the first social network. Still very glad they were built.

Have used and loved Flightfox, but it's more for elaborate itineraries. I don't want to pay a $39 finders fee to let me know when there's a flight to Miami for less than $200

The trouble with all these sites, at least to me, is that they still make me do so much searching and research. And I still have to have a specific destination in mind. I'd say at any time I'm vaguely interested in hundreds of dif

I long for a world where everyone uses this! But that's a ways off. Regardless, I think there's a need for a much more efficient exchange where airline tickets are concerned - that's part of why we're building this. Righ

Hey, this is one of the founders. App not a website for now for a variety of reasons: 1. Personalization is key to what we do and people are more comfortable signing in to something on mobile 2. The mobile use case encourages us to keep th

A number of sites do this to varying degrees of success: - Skyscanner, as David says - Adioso (YC W09) - TripCommon - you can also set up alerts 'SF to Europe for less than $Y00' - Getgoing (YC S12) - Kayak explore I've always found Skyscan
