Finding flight deals on Skyscanner: Frequently Asked Questions

How can I find the best flight deals?

Search for flights, but don’t enter a departure date. Instead, hit ‘Whole month’, then select ‘Cheapest month’. You’ll see exactly which days are cheapest to fly out and then return back to United Kingdom.

Be spontaneous and bag a flight deal anywhere! If you know when you want to travel but you’re flexible on where, Everywhere Search shows you the best airfare deals from your chosen location. Simply enter your departure city or airport, select your dates and search ‘Everywhere’.

If you already have a destination and dates in mind, get notified whenever fares rise or fall by setting up a Price Alert.

Sometimes it’s worth waiting until the last minute to see if airlines reduce the price of unsold seats on their flights – but this can be a gamble. Here are some ways to bag a great flight ticket deal a week or two before flying using our flight search:

If you just fancy a holiday but don’t care where, search flights to ‘Everywhere’ for the best flight deals and offers to any destination in the near future.

If you have a destination in mind and want to find the best deals for flights for the next few weeks, choose ‘whole month’ when you search then select the upcoming month to find the cheapest day to fly.

If you’ve got a trip in mind but you’re not ready to book, there’s no pressure. You can keep an eye on prices in two ways.

Set up a Price Alert – we’ll watch fares for you, and let you know via email if they rise or fall.

Once you select your flight, you’ll book directly with one of our airline or travel partners, usually on their site. Your flight booking confirmation email and all the other info you’ll need will come from them.

Or if you book directly with Skyscanner, we’ll send you your booking confirmation via email. If you’ve booked directly, you can check your account on our website or app to see the details of your booking. You can also get in touch with our dedicated Customer Care team if you need any help.
