What to compare

Five things worth comparing besides price

Two fares on the same route can be very different trips. Open the details on each result before you choose.

Total price, in one currency

Compare the final total in the same currency, with the baggage and seats you actually need added. Card or payment fees, if any, show at the seller’s checkout.

Journey time and stops

Look at total travel time, not only flight time. An extra hour in the air can be worth it to avoid an overnight layover.

Arrival and departure times

Late-night arrivals can add a hotel night or a pricier airport transfer. Early departures from Delhi can mean leaving home in the small hours.

Fare rules

Some fares allow changes for a fee, some allow refunds, some allow neither. If your dates might move, a flexible fare can be cheaper in the end.

Who you are buying from

Results include airlines and online agencies. Buying from the airline keeps changes in one place. An agency may show a lower price, so read its service and refund terms.

Airline or agency

Booking with the airline or an agency

Both are fine when you know the trade-off.

Airline website

Seat, meal and baggage changes are usually simplest, and disruptions are handled directly by the airline.

Online agency

Sometimes lower, and useful for mixing airlines. Changes go through the agency, so its support and fees matter.

Questions

Frequently asked

Does Avencrest charge to use the flight search?

No. The search is free to use. Prices are set by the airlines and agencies shown, and you pay the seller you choose.

Why do two websites show different prices for the same flight?

Sellers can price the same seat differently, add fees, or include different baggage. Compare the final total with the same inclusions.

Can I compare multi-city trips?

Yes. Use Create multi-city route under the search form to add more than one flight.

Which currency should I pay in?

Usually the currency of your card or bank account, to avoid conversion charges. The search shows prices in your local currency automatically: INR in India, AUD in Australia, NZD in New Zealand, USD elsewhere.

Can you compare options for a group or family?

Yes. Send the route, dates and who is travelling on WhatsApp or through Customise your trip and we will help.
