Where prices come from

The fares

Sky shows fares that other travellers found on Aviasales in the last few days. They are real prices someone was quoted, not estimates. They are usually close to what you will pay, but the airline sets the final price when you book, which is why every price on Sky says when it was seen and that it may change at booking.

Sky never says a price is guaranteed, because it cannot be.

How Sky finds a cheaper fare

Sky takes the cheapest fare on your date, then checks a handful of specific things: a different day within three days, other airports within 150 km, whether one stop costs less than flying direct, two separate tickets through a hub, and for a return trip, whether two one-way tickets beat one return. Each idea is shown with what it saves in rupees and what it costs you in time or convenience.

Where an idea has a real risk — two separate tickets mean the airline does not have to rebook you if the first flight is late — Sky says so plainly and never puts that idea first.

Sky does not suggest hidden-city or “skiplagging” tickets. They breach airline conditions of carriage and can cost you the rest of your trip.

How Sky makes money

When you book through a link on Sky, Sky may earn a commission from Aviasales. It costs you nothing and it does not change which fare Sky shows you: ideas are ranked by what they save, never by what they pay.
