Every post I add to the site has a flexibility score between 1 and 5.
Flexibility scores are designed to help you quickly determine:
- How easy it will be to find alternate dates for the fare I found
- How quickly you should act on the fares.
Flexibility Score: 1/5
A trip with a flexibility score of 1/5 or 2/5 is most likely a mistake fare.
That means that there is little to no flexibility when it comes to adjusting the dates we found, so you might not want to waste much time looking for different times from what I posted. Since it’s a mistake fare, there are very few seats left at that price so if the trip interests you, you might want to grab it ASAP.
Flexibility Score: 5/5
Conversely, a trip with a flexibiity score of 4/5 or 5/5 is a result of an airline sale. As long as the sale is going on, you should be able to change the dates entirely and still find alternate dates similar to that price. The higher the score, the less likely that fare is to disappear on you, and even if it does – you can probably find other dates at that price (until whenever the airline sale ends)
