Fare Sniper

What does Fare Sniper actually do?

It searches every departure day for eleven months, every nearby airport, every trip length, one ticket or two, and stopovers. Then it watches the routes you care about and messages you when the price drops. It never books anything - it links you to the airline.

Fare Sniper is a search engine that keeps searching. You tell it where you might go, and it works through the combinations a person would never sit and click through: every departure day for the next eleven months, every airport within reach of you, every trip length in your range, one ticket or two, and routes that go through a stopover city.

Then it keeps doing that on a schedule, and messages you when a route you care about gets cheaper.

What it does

  • Prices whole trips, not single flights, so a cheap outbound with an expensive way home never wins.
  • Counts the bag, the seat and the bus to the further airport before ranking anything. See what the true cost includes.
  • Compares one ticket against two separate ones, and tells you plainly when the cheaper answer is a self-transfer.
  • Watches the routes you choose and alerts you on a real drop rather than on noise.

What it does not do

  • It never books. There is no basket, no passenger form and no card field anywhere in this product. When you have found the trip, the link takes you to the airline or to Google Flights and you buy it there.
  • It is not a travel agency and not an agent of any airline. Nothing here is a booking, a reservation or a held price.
  • It does not guarantee that a price is still available. Fares move constantly. See why the price can change.
  • It does not sell your data or run advertising trackers. See the privacy policy.

Because we never sell you a ticket, there is nothing for us to refund on a flight. The only money that ever changes hands between you and us is the subscription. That is covered by the refund and cancellation policy.
