I get the opportunity 3 times a day for Domestic U.S. & Canada to review a report our software kicks out with the absolute cheapest deals that are filed during each airfare feed 10am, 12:30pm and 8:00pm weekdays (5 times a day for international).
I thought it might be fun to post them once in the blog and see if people like the idea and if so we will have a deal tool in FareCompare.com (so put in your comments one way or the other by clicking the comments link the bottom).
If you sign up for airfare email alerts you will get these deals when they happen, you just won’t see them all in a list in this form.
I think this might give you an idea of what sorts of changes we see each day.
Many of these fares will only be around for a short period because they are “tweaks”, others are just plain “Crazy Ivans“.
Maybe you can even challenge me to some airline code and city code trivia in the comments (airfares are filed by city code, which is different from airport code and be careful I have been doing this a while …).
All prices are before tax which is approximately $21 roundtrip for non-stops and $42 roundtrip for connecting.
So here are todays deals where prices dropped at least $100 below the previous low price in the city pair:
Trivia:
City Code DTT - Detroit (airport code is DTW)
Airline Code FL - Airtran Airlines
All the “Y” first letter city codes are in Canada
