FLIGHT PRICE WATCH · Workflow idea

Hear about a possible fare match without checking every day.

Set a route, travel dates, and maximum price, then review available fares on the agreed schedule. When an option appears to meet the limit, prepare an email with the itinerary, fare, and search time so the traveler can verify current availability and conditions before deciding whether to book.

01 / The starting point

A clear request.

Helps travelers notice possible lower fares on selected trips without repeatedly searching by hand.

  1. Choose the route and travel dates

    Record the selected origin, destination, travel window, and any trip details needed to compare like-for-like options.

  2. Set the traveler’s price limit

    Confirm the maximum fare and currency the traveler wants to use for a possible alert.

  3. Check available options on schedule

    Review fares for the selected route and dates at the agreed frequency, retaining the search time and itinerary details.

  4. Compare options with the chosen limit

    Flag possible matches and make unavailable dates, incomplete fares, or uncertain itinerary details clear.

  5. Send a reviewable fare notice

    Prepare an email for the confirmed traveler with the observed fare and conditions; require the traveler to verify the live total and make any booking decision.

Keep in mind

A fare can disappear or change, and the displayed amount may omit baggage, taxes, fees, or important restrictions. Verify route, dates, passenger details, currency, total price, and current availability directly before deciding. Send alerts only to the intended recipient, and never book or pay for travel automatically.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Define routes, dates, and search frequency

Choose supported origin and destination locations, travel windows, and how often fares should be checked.

Set fare comparison rules

Specify the price limit, currency, passenger assumptions, and how fees, baggage, or changed itineraries are presented.

Confirm the alert recipient

Verify who requested the fare watch, where alerts are sent, and how the traveler can change or stop notices.

Test matches and changing availability

Review a fare below and above the limit, an unavailable itinerary, and a changed total; confirm no booking or payment occurs.
