Planning a flight can be a real challenge because there are a number of variables that have a significant impact on travel quality, duration and last but not least the ticket price: depending on which airline you choose, where and how often you change planes, how if you have a lot of luggage with you et cetera, there are significant differences.
Sometimes a different departure time is enough to find a cheaper flight or a more convenient transfer option.
In my opinion, one of the best travel tools for private individuals can be found on the Internet at https://matrix.itasoftware.com/search - here you can plan both simple outward and return flights as well as round trips with relative ease.
A large number of fine-tuning parameters can be set for the search.
For example, are you dependent on a specific departure date, or can it be a day earlier or later?
What is the maximum number of stops you would like to endure?
How many passengers are on board?
And how many pieces of luggage do you take with you?
Do you want it to be as cheap as possible, or do you prefer business or first class?
After you have entered all your preferences, you will receive a list of results that can be sorted according to various criteria, such as price, travel time,
Number of stopovers or preferred airline.
If you decide on a flight, the website spits out the exact price including additional costs.
However, you still have to book the ticket for the respective offer yourself with the relevant airline, the website has no intention of making a profit.
