Your Flight-Hunting Kitten
Never Sleeps.

FlightKitten scans 220+ airlines — including budget carriers like Ryanair, Wizz Air, and Norse Atlantic that most tools skip — twice a day for economy fares on your exact routes. When a fare drops below the target price you set, it pounces instantly and sends you an email alert with the price, an AI briefing explaining why the deal matters, and a direct link to book on Google Flights.

Google Flights sends a generic email when any price change happens, with no context and no target threshold. FlightKitten lets you set a specific dollar amount you're willing to pay, monitors a wider airline pool (including low-cost carriers), attaches an AI-powered briefing to every alert explaining whether the deal is genuinely good, and delivers faster so you can book before fares bounce back. Think of it as going from a passive weather report to a personal deal-hunting operative.

Yes — every new account starts with a 7-day free trial at Core-level access, which includes 2 watchlists, 3 destinations per watchlist, AI briefings, and Explorer regions. A card is required upfront but you won't be charged until day 8. Cancel anytime during the trial and you'll pay nothing.

Plans start at $4.99/month (Starter) with 1 watchlist and 2×/day scans. The most popular Core plan is $7.99/month with 2 watchlists, Explorer regions, and advanced filters. Pro is $14.99/month for power travelers who want 3 watchlists and ±2-day date flexibility. Every plan offers an annual option that saves you 2 months — for example, Core Annual is just $79.99/year.

All plans scan your routes twice per day. The moment FlightKitten spots a fare below your target, alerts are delivered within minutes via email — fast enough to book before prices bounce. Each alert includes the exact price, airline, route, and an AI briefing so you can decide instantly.

A mistake fare (also called an error fare or glitch fare) happens when an airline accidentally publishes a price far below normal — sometimes 50–80% off. These deals can disappear within hours. FlightKitten's twice-daily scans across 220+ airlines are designed to catch these anomalies early, and the AI briefing in your alert will flag when a fare looks like a pricing error so you can book before it's pulled.

No — and that's by design. FlightKitten is a deal-hunting tool, not a travel agency. When it catches a fare below your target, it sends you a direct link to view and book on Google Flights at the airline's own price. There are no middlemen, no markups, and no booking fees. You always book directly with the airline.

Explorer is a region-based discovery mode available on Core and Pro plans. Instead of picking specific destinations, you choose a geographic region — like 'Southeast Asia' or 'Southern Europe' — a departure month, and a stay duration (weekend, 1 week, or 2 weeks). FlightKitten then scans every destination in that region and alerts you to the cheapest deals it finds. It's perfect when you're flexible on where to go and just want the best price.

Absolutely. Starter includes 1 watchlist with up to 2 destinations, Core gives you 2 watchlists with up to 3 destinations each, and Pro unlocks 3 watchlists. That means on the Pro plan you could be tracking up to 9 different destinations across 3 separate trips simultaneously — all scanning twice a day.

Yes, all paid plans are month-to-month with no contracts and no cancellation fees. You can cancel directly from your dashboard in one click. If you're on an annual plan, you keep access until the end of your billing period. Your kitten will miss you, though.

Your privacy is a priority. FlightKitten offers Google sign-in and email/password authentication — passwords are securely hashed and never visible to our team. Payments are processed through Stripe (your card details never touch our servers), and we don't sell or share your data with third parties. We only store what's needed to run your watchlists — routes, dates, and alert preferences.

FlightKitten alerts you to per-person economy fares, so the deals it finds apply to every seat you book. Simply click the alert link, and on Google Flights you can select the number of passengers before completing your booking. Many families use FlightKitten to monitor vacation routes and book together once the price drops to their target.

FlightKitten focuses exclusively on economy fares — it's what we do best. For business class and first class cabin monitoring, we've heard great things about BusinessClassSignal.com. They run a similar fare-tracking approach but specifically for premium cabins, with alerts when business and first class prices drop on major routes. Worth checking out if you fly up front.
