Liked the idea and would definitely try out. It was a little slow on my end matching the airports to my input the first time around. For the flights that I tried I received options with savings raging from $50 to $100 compared to Kayak. But when I tried to book I was sent to "http://www.skyscanner.com/" and received a message that no flights matched my query. Also: I was given no "tripdelta Result", In what case should this appear or work best? (my search was for a trip from South America to Europe).

If you want to see some cool tripdelta results, here are a few you might like and showcase what we can do:

https://tripdelta.com/results/PHL/MIL/02-07-15/ROM/PHL/14-07...

https://tripdelta.com/results/CGN/SFO/23-04-15/

Regarding skyscanner: We are working on this issue! Background: Skyscanner gives you different results depending on where you're from. Sometimes results that we get will not show up in Skyscanner because of this or you have to reload Skyscanner to receive proper pricing.

Cool. So the idea is to look for different connections and nearby airports as I see. Will try it out. Good luck!

That's the biggest problem I have with flight search as well- redirection.
