How to find a cheap flight

Open Messenger and start talking to Cheapflights. Use this link to start a conversation.

Tell Cheapflights Chat where you want to go and it will give you the average cheapest return flight in the near future.

For all the flight details just tap ‘book now’. If you ever get stuck just type help.

Get inspiration

If your first search doesn’t hit the spot, type ‘Inspire me’ to find a new and exciting destination you might not have thought about.

Once you’ve found your perfect flight you can search for a hotel. You’ll get the top hotels available within your budget for the dates you’re flying.

Convert currency

If you don’t know the currency code just ask us ‘what’s the currency in Thailand’ and we’ll give you the code.

Get a flight somewhere hot

Ask Cheapflights Chat ‘Where’s hot right now?’ and it will suggest flights to a destination where the weather is warm. Just get me somewhere hot now!
