Hipmunk and Google Flights are my two go-to tools these days for beginning the search for flight tickets. I use Hipmunk when I know where I want to go and when, and I use Google Flights when I know I want to take a trip, but I'm flexible about both when and where.

You might like to check out a product that I built, Concorde (https://concorde.io), for your flexible travel search needs — you can see the cheapest flights to hundreds of destinations worldwide with just a couple of clicks.

I haven't used Google Flights -- will check it out -- but have taken a similar approach with Skyscanner.com. Basically, if I want to filter a trip based on price without regard to location or travel date. Really fun to play with!

Kayak has a nice tool for that too: https://www.kayak.com/explore

Pretty amazing to find flights to Europe from LAX for under $500 for many destinations in Europe and Asia. Sub-$400 for some destinations too

There are so many ways to search for cheap flights... but so few to search to good flights, across all airlines.
