My new favorite travel search engine


kayak.com used to be my favorite travel search engine.  It is a meta-search engine which compares the listings from a variety of other travel search engines.

Well, a new player in town takes the concept to a new level.  Hipmunk provides the same meta-search capabilities, but provides them in a very useful, streamlined user interface.  It also leverages an “agony algorithm” which ranks flights by a combination of price, duration and number of stops.

Fast Company magazine provide some additional description in its hipmunk review.  Or just check out the hipmunk.com site and form your own opinion…

(Oh, and here are some additional “tips for flying” from Chris Brogan.)
