Dear Mystery Site: Where can I fly for $300?

October 27, 2009 2:41 PM

I am looking for a Website I once used that allowed you to enter in a departure city and a date and then gave you all possible worldwide flight destinations sorted by cost. What was that site?

was it Kayak Buzz?

Why yes, it was. Thank you! I'm going to mark this resolved but if anyone knows other sites that do this too, please post them!

you're welcome.

also, Airfarewatchdog allows you to enter a departure city, and lets you know if there are any deals to be had.

Excuse me for being dim, but how do you get it to search for all and any destinations? It won't work for me unless I put in a destination airport as well.

If you go to the kayak buzz page and keep the radio button set on "top 25 cities" it will work to show you [I think] the city destinations that have the lowest 25 fares. If you click the "lowest fares" radio button then you have to put in a destination.

Sorry, misread the question - Opodo needs a destination.

Skyscanner is another, athough it's geared towards European fights.

I use FareCompare, which gives you a "Dream Maps" sort of format, by continent.
