GetFlight.com.au tracks sale fares for each of the four major domestic carriers, as well as some of the largest international airlines that operate in and out of Australia. Each day it publishes up to 1,200 sale airfares to up to and around 100 cities in over 30 countries.
Ian Cumming, Principal Founder of GetFlight, said: “We believe GetFlight is an innovative deals hub that will save Australians time and money when booking their flights. Many Australians are inundated with the amount of deal emails they receive. With GetFlight, consumers can simply subscribe to the routes that interest them, and receive just one email notification if and when their destination goes on sale.”
According to a recent U.S. survey from Savings.com, seven out of 10 consumers indicate they receive anywhere from one to more than 20 deal emails every day. Because of the difficulty in managing the influx of offers, nearly half (47%) admit they end up deleting the daily emails.
GetFlight.com.au, which charges no booking fees – or any fees for that matter – directs users to the airline websites for purchasing, ensuring customers get the lowest fare available without having to pay a middle man.
“We created this concept because we thought Australians needed an easy and effective site to search and find the lowest fares available. We believe we’ve successfully created a simple, easy-to-use airfare search engine that redirects customers to the airlines’ websites, ensuring they get the cheapest sale airfare without paying any fees. We’re not an online travel agent and we’re not determining the fares – we’re simply simplifying sale airfares for value-seeking Australians looking to travel,” said Cumming.
“GetFlight is a site for time-poor, value-seeking Australians who want a simple search site and personalised experience. It is a service for Australians who want email alerts only for those destinations they wish to visit, for a range of different airlines,” Cumming concluded.
GetFlight is an independent Sydney-based initiative founded by Ian Cumming and his team of travel and technology experts. Cumming, the Principal Founder, previously founded Travellr.com, which he sold to The World Nomads Group in 2009. Cumming is also the Founder of Travel Massive, a global travel technology networking group previously known as Travel Tribe.
