Tabs are great, but why clutter your browser w all those flight searches?

I seeing startups come out of nowhere and start turning an industry on its head. Online flights have been so stagnant (at least the main, big players) for so long, nice to see someone bringing some fresh new and useful features!

They really do have something going there. Works very well.

Much appreciated! I can assure you Adam & Steve are obsessive when it comes to product speed and usability. The user experience is paramount. We'll never bombard with ads or try and do anything to keep folks from the fastest, most agony-free flight searches possible. And we trust folks around HN and beyond will let us know should we falter. We want to hear it.

It needs to identify more than US-style dates.

Oddly, I tried: 27/9/10 -> 1/10/10

and got: BHX → AGP on Mon, Sep 27, AGP → BHX on Mon, Jan 10

So it looks like it's being worked on.

It'd be good to have the output as 27 Sept & 1 Oct too.

Seemingly small stuff, until you book the wrong flight.

But it's looking decent so far.
