Google Flights has already been extensively used by customers looking for cheaper flight fares. However, recently, Google has announced two new features within this space that will make travel more feasible for those looking for budget-friendly options. These tools are not just great for those looking for options, but also those who are trying to plan a trip without a set destination in mind. In this article, we explore some of these features and how they can help.
Find destinations based on your price range
By entering price filters, customers can now identify flight tickets from specific airports that fall under their budget. Moreover, customers can also add an upper limit when it comes to these filters so that they do not have to look at options that exceed their upper budget. You can also filter the searches on the basis of flight names, destinations, and the number of stops that you are willing to make.

Compare prices between flights, as well as performances over a period of time
Consumers find immense value in being able to compare different prices of things while making purchase decisions. This holds true for flights as well. However, the latest tool is one that allows customers to see the average performance of flight prices over a period of time, like a year. This can help customers see whether they are getting a good deal, paying too much, or receiving a price that is lower than what others have paid in the past. This can help consumers make better decisions.

A quick search for Hotels and deals
Apart from finding deals for flights, consumers can now also find hotels in a much easier way. Earlier, people could look at nightly tariffs for hotels and then make decisions. Now, however, you can look at hotels on the basis of the different deals offered, and then make a decision about where to stay. Once you find a hotel that you are interested in it, you can click on the name and then see the different prices offered by various travel companies. This can help you pick a deal that suits your budget the most.
With these new features, travelers can make the most out of looking for information and making smarter choices. This way, even frugal, shoe-string budget seekers can find great travel options that make sense.
