Skyscanner merges its flights, hotels, and car hire services into a single app
Jul 21, 2016
Skyscanner is pulling together its various search smarts under one roof, meaning that you’ll now be able to dig out the best prices on flights, hotels, and rental cars from a single app.
Though Skyscanner started out as a flight search engine, aggregating the best prices and dates for destinations around the world, the company has been edging into related travel territories, but so far has kept them separate with standalone apps for car hire and accommodation. Today, the company is updating its Android and iOS apps to bring them all together.
The apps also come with a host of new features, including a Top Deals section highlighting bargains for summer holidays, city breaks, and more. It also sports an upgraded Quick Search function that automatically syncs hotels and car hire with flights, to save the user from having to re-enter times, dates, and destinations.
