A train or budget flight to Barcelona first might be cheaper overall instead of going direct. Can’t decide if you want to get home from somewhere in Europe? The cheapest flight home might be from Barcelona and you’re in Italy. Want to see if it’s cheaper to depart from JFK, EWR, LGA, ISP, BOS, or PVD? Just enter in all the airport codes and the matrix will return the cheapest option.Īnother use if for when you want to search multiple locations to home. This can help you get creative with flight searching. What no other flight searches do is let you search multiple departure points. So if I wanted to get to SF but flying into San Jose is cheaper, I can book that instead. It functions a lot like Skyscanner’s “Everywhere” search but with a bit more targeted results.įor example, if I was looking at flights to California but didn’t care which city I arrived in, I could input NYC to SFO, OAK, SJC, LAX, and so on for as many airports as I want, and the Matrix will give me the cheapest destination. The matrix lets you enter an unlimited amount of departure and destination locations and will return the cheapest combination. Most flight searching tools might let you search multiple destination by price but not multiple departure points.
I find it useful for it’s ability to enter in a wide array of airport codes to search by destination or by departure point. Now that it has been bought by Google, it seems that some of the features have been eliminated and somewhat kneecapped. The flight matrix can be used in many ways and used to be a lot more flexible than its current iteration.

It’s an incredibly powerful tool that I have been slowly learning how to take more advantage of it’s features, every time I flight search.
A lot of our searching centers around Google’s ITA Matrix. In a previous article, I gave an overview of what we use to find cheap flights. Advanced Flight Search – Crazy ITA Matrix Searching
