When is the best time to book your flight? These Google insights could make your next trip cheaper

zdnet.com Chris Bayer 2026-03-05 00:14:00

Jaromir/Getty Images The last time I booked a vacation flight, I literally spent over an hour finding the cheapest ticket to Hawaii with two criteria in mind: that it wasn't a red-eye flight, and it only had one layover. At least one layover was to be expected (at LAX) because Kentucky is a long way from the Aloha State.

How a data processing problem at Lyft became the basis for Eventual
