Extension summary

Analyze keywords

SkySavvy is a Chrome extension that enhances Google Flights with style changes and additional data in flight search results for savvy travelers.

Key Features:

💻 Page Style Enhancements: • Widens the page to reduce clutter and take advantage of wider screens • Hides the footer that contained unnecessary links • Hides various annoying disclaimers that cluttered the interface (e.g., "Displayed currencies may differ", "Prices include fees", etc.) • Hides the "Price Guarantee" advertisement banner • Hides CO2 emissions data from the top-level of each search result (the same information is still available in the expanded view) • Supports both light and dark mode • Lightweight; ad-free and tracker-free

🌴 Holiday Highlighting: • Highlights holidays (US only for now) in the date-pickers, helping you easily visualize travel dates that may be more expensive.

User reviews

This extension provides minimal value but it slows down search of flights, and it also interferes with several Google Flights functions. The extension seems to use multimedia assets from the airline website to display pictures of the aircraft. Of that, only Delta Air Lines work and the graphics are not scaled properly, so regardless of the aircraft, they look similar in size on screen and offer very little differentiation. More importantly, this extension also messes up date functions and fare-based search functions, including some build-in filtering functions of Google Flights. Overall, for frequent Google Flights users, this extension adds very little value, if any, and it actually slows down your search efforts. It's really hard to recommend this.
