With PriceCheck, a better deal could be just a screenshot away

Need a sanity check on that flight price? Just PriceCheck it. The super-handy new KAYAK tool will scan 1,000+ travel sites in seconds, and either reassure you that it’s indeed a great price – or give you an even better one. See how it works.

Save money with a screenshot

We’ve all tried it: searching and comparing flight prices on the internet for hours at a time in the ultimate quest to find The Cheapest Price Out There. Except… what if it isn’t? The reality is, no one wants to feel the buyer’s regret that surfaces after seeing a cheaper flight price than what you already paid. But no one has the time to search hundreds of sites either. Enter KAYAK PriceCheck.

Here’s how it works

1. Make a flight search

Search for your cheap flight as you’d normally do, making sure it’s just for one traveller. The search doesn’t have to be on KAYAK by the way. It can be from any site or app – because we love a great deal, no matter where it comes from.

2. Take a screenshot

Once you’ve found a flight price you’re pretty confident is the best, screenshot it with your mobile. Ensure you’re only including the itinerary you want checked in the screenshot, and that the following flight details are included: price, travel date(s), airline, origin and destination.

3. Upload to the app

When you’ve got your screenshot with all the right info, open up the KAYAK app, go to PriceCheck, and upload the shot. Thanks to the power of AI, PriceCheck will then search through hundreds of other travel sites and apps to compare your flight price with theirs – all in a matter of seconds. If you’ve indeed found the best price, then kudos! You can go ahead and book that flight with peace of mind. But if PriceCheck has found a cheaper price, you could save a significant amount. In fact, so far PriceCheck has helped travellers across the globe save about 18%* when it found a cheaper price than the one uploaded.

But wait, there’s more…

There’s actually another cool thing that PriceCheck does: if it hasn’t found a cheaper price for the exact flight you uploaded, it will show you other comparable flights that may actually be shorter duration, cheaper or have some other advantage. Really, you’ve got nothing to lose by taking a couple minutes to double-check with PriceCheck. So download the app and try it out!

*Savings percentages are based on the median savings found for the same flight, for economy flight comparisons, when a cheaper price was identified for a valid itinerary screenshot uploaded to the KAYAK PriceCheck in the app with minimum required info.
