Read this once and you will understand the whole system. It takes about three minutes, and the moving example below does most of the explaining.
Every other travel site makes you choose a destination and then shows you a price. This one goes the other way: you say when you can travel and what weather you want, and it finds the destination. It searches many suppliers at once, scores each price against months of history for that exact route, and puts the best answer first.
The rest of this page describes the product. This shows it: one real search, from the first question to the priced result.
Real trips, found on the last scan. Same 4 sources, same ranking, same everything a live search does.
Somewhere warm, from Grande Prairie, around Tue 18 Aug, for 5–7 nights, for 2 adults + 2 children — and I want the weather to actually be good
Understood — filling the search in for you ✓
A live search checks every source again for today’s prices and availability — it takes about two minutes, and it counts against your daily allowance.
Finding where to go is free and unlimited for everyone, signed in or not. It reads our own forecast table and costs us nothing. Pricing a trip needs an account, because it queries every airline and hotel source live for you, and how many you get depends on your plan. Plans, prices and allowances all live on the membership page, and every one of them is read from a single definition, so they can't disagree with what the checkout charges.
