Use Scott's Cheap Flights for Mistake Fares and Deals

The Problem

You don't know when amazing flight deals happen. By the time you hear about them, they're gone.

The Hack

Sign up at Going.com (formerly Scott's Cheap Flights). Set your home airport. Receive email alerts when fares drop 40-90% below normal for your routes.

Why It Works

Airlines occasionally publish mistake fares or run flash sales that last only hours. Going.com monitors millions of routes and alerts you within minutes — catching deals you'd never find manually.

Pro Tips

• Free tier: limited alerts. Premium ($49/year): all deals
• Deals often last only 24-48 hours — act fast
• Set departure airports for any airports within driving distance
• Some deals are 50-90% off — $200 round trip to Europe is real
