Here is my new favorite website (in a long line of everchanging favorites).
Cheapest Flights from Redmond – FareCompare.com – Airfare Comparison Engine.
Long ago, I saw a website that allowed you to pan around the globe looking at the cheapest fares from a particular departure point. I think it used Google’s API, and my best guess is it was an early version of Kayak. I’ve many times looked for that site, but to no avail. Now I have FareCompare. Not quite able to look at the whole world at once, but I’ll get over it..eventually.
If you enjoyed this article, please consider sharing it!
I found that site last year and revisited it again when I needed to buy tickets to San Diego. I combine it with Bing Travel to make sure I’ve gotten the best rate. I have the first leg at $159 from RDM to LAX roundtrip and am still checking to see if fares go down to get me the whole way.
Here is the link to the newer version of the tool, you can now go around the world by travel date
