Dear Friends,
First, I want to thank everyone for your support of FareCompare — our little technology company has been going through some growing pains and I want to make sure that everyone knows that our entire team comes to work each day with one simple goal:
“Helping Air Travelers Find a Cheap Deal and Make the Best Purchasing Decisions”
Two years ago when we launched our small website, my vision was to change the status quo that all of us endure in air travel shopping today. As technology geeks, it has been a roller coaster these past two years as we have learned, first, how to stay alive and second, how to offer completely free services and create a profitable company in the advertising model.
In the next few months, our “dream site” will be coming to fruition as we use our successes and failures of the past two years to create the air travel website I always wanted to provide to consumers – a perfect mixture of technology, expert advice and tasteful advertising.
Air travel has become more painful, both in price and convenience – but I wouldn’t trade my family trip to London coming up in a few months — or that quick trip to visit a colleague — for anything in the world. And that’s because air travel gives life spice. And for those that take a small bit of their time to learn how to navigate these shark infested waters – I say, shopping for travel can actually be fun.
I hope we can prove this to you, as we begin to rollout our completely new site in early November. Give it a whirl — and as always, tell us what you think.
Kind Regards,
Rick Seaney, CEO

I can’t wait to see the new site!
It’s hard to imagine how it can improve.
Yes, it can improve by go back to what it was 2 years ago. I found the site was so useful & fast. I found many good or excellent tickets from “old” Farecompare.com.
Have you try to click on the link RickSeaney.com recently? It’s slow.
Blog speed will be addressed for new rollout as well as our new interface — I wish you all could see the stuff in our internal lab — but alas so many things to test and finish up — soon though, very soon
Hi,
I am a retired teacher who loves to travel. So,I could use a search site where:
I know where I want to go, don’t care when, just want a good price. example CLE to Lugano, Switzerland to see my son. a good price looks like $700-$800 with all fees&taxes.
and……….
Last minute getaways to anywhere from CAK or CLE cheap!
Thanks!
Can’t wait to see the new website. This months newsletter was very insightful of the changes to domestic air travel. Keep up the good work.
similar to Kristen Lupsor (comment #4), I know WHEN but don’t know WHERE.
I like to give the date range that I can travel and Farecompare.com tells me where is the best ticket price (
