Extension summary

Take the pain out of flight search with Flight Penguin. It's a browser extension built and financed by former Hipmunk founders, employees, and fans that finds cheaper and more comfortable flights.


How do we take the pain out of searching for a flight?

👁️ See flights in an appealing, visual format My eyes glaze over staring at virtual flight tickets that are intentionally made to be difficult to compare, so Flight Penguin's time-bar layout makes it easy to see flight takeoff, landing, and layover times.

1️⃣ Save time by searching for a flight once I am sick of having to visit multiple travel sites, so our extension searches over 600 airlines globally, including many that do not play nicely with others.

🪄 Better recommendations My idea of the 'best' flight is NOT a redeye on a discount carrier with a long layover. Flight Penguin's top choice finds the best combination of comfort and value - usually an affordable, nonstop, daytime flight.

Best flight search UI. The ability to search nearby airports would be a great feature.
by William Treichler, 2022-06-16

The perfect search tool has finally arrived! The absolute best User Experience for flight travel searches in the history of the world. First, you see super-clear visual summaries of start and end times of your flight options.Second, discount airline options (like SouthWest) appear in your search results. Third, you can sort by pain, price or duration. Sensational. Love it. Love it. Love it.

Great new design and philosophy for a flight search engine. I've wasted many soul-destroying hours searching for flights and anything that can improve on the experience is really welcome.
