New Google Now card can tip you off to flight prices
Google Now excels in trying to deliver information that might be relevant to you at any given time. It uses your Google Search history to determine what you might be interested in and tries to serve up whatever it is you might need, whether that be directions to a local burger joint or movie times for an upcoming blockbuster film.
That functionality seems to have expanded today. Google will now alert you to flight prices if they notice you searching for flights to and from a place. For instance, searching vacation spots in Spain would bring up the prices for a flight to and fro. Google takes things a step further by tracking pricing history and letting you know if the price has seen an increase or decrease since the last time you checked.
We imagine it’s all powered by Google Flights, Google’s online flight searching site to rope together flight information and pricing. The only issue we can see is that Google Flights doesn’t cover every airline out there, so you’ll still want to do your research when trying to snag an affordable plane ticket. That said, they do cover quite a bit and this could prove to be a great starting point for anyone needing to travel by air. Folks should start seeing the new card in action some point soon (if you’re actively searching for flights, that is).
