Google Flight: must have application for tourists worldwide

Google Flights is increasingly closer to answer the question: "When is the best time to buy airline tickets?" The search engine has now a new feature - it can tell people worldwide when is the right time to buy airlines tickets for the best process. These predictions are based on data tariff historic flight.

Previously, Google Flights allowed users to see an airline’s fluctuating prices and a calendar of fares, and would also alert users of price drops or spikes. With this new feature, to be rolled out in "the coming weeks," the app will now notify you as to when that fare you're seeing will expire. More, Google Flights will display a notification bar offering tips on picking the best route. This may recommend alternate airports or dates that could save you money, for instance, or inform you about when prices are expected to increase and by how much, based on historical data. Google Flights can also send you notification emails that alert you to changing prices for either a flight or a route.

The features are putting Google in more direct competition with the travel startup Hopper, which has offered one of the better applications for helping travelers figure out when to fly. Its easy-to-use interface lets you find cheap travel dates and flights in a variety of ways, including by tracking historical pricing data, price drops, and by offering suggestions on how to bring costs down. The company this year raised $16 million in additional funding to further expand into international travel.
