Is It a Travel Hack?

If you’ve ever searched “travel hacks,” you’ve probably seen the usual suspects: fly on a Tuesday, be flexible, or travel off-peak.

Flying on a Tuesday might save you some cash, but you’re also cutting into your time off. Sometimes it’s worth paying a bit more to travel when it works best for you. If a ticket is cheap because nobody wants it, you haven’t unlocked some secret strategy — you’ve just found a route with less demand. Airfare search engines already show you the cheapest options by destinations, dates, and more. There isn't many more tricks to it.

Kayak has a feature called Hacker Fares. It consists in splitting your itinerary into separate tickets to pay less than, for instance, a single-ticket roundtrip. It saves you the effort of searching for each leg separately - but it's a fairly standard feature that should be included in any flight search engine.

Airglitch has various ticketing strategies that set it apart. You can find cheaper return trips that serve as one-ways, cheaper multicity trips with a spare journey, and various other ticketing patterns that are applied to find better flight offers. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. We run this check and show alternative options if they cost less. Is it a hack?
