Technology

AirFareWatchDog was created to help users plan and book travel accommodations without red tape or confusion. To ensure that travelers can manage and organize travel seamlessly, AirFareWatchDog searches through thousands of airfares and analyzes millions of hotel details to provide travelers with some of the best travel deals available. The company's technology enables travelers to quickly find flight arrangements and hotel reservations that will work with their schedules and budgets.

Network

While AirFareWatchDog is known for spotting and listing discounts and affordable rates for airfare, the company also has an extensive network that hunts down discounts and affordable rates on hotel rooms and vacation packages. Consumers who use AirFareWatchDog's platform have access to the following:

• Real analysts - The AirFareWatchDog staff includes airfare analysts who research airfares to make sure they're good deals
• Alerts and comparisons - The platform will send alerts when analysts find low fares or incredible hotel deals
• Value deals - Analysts sort through millions of hotel property details to find price, location, and ratings so that travelers receive the best deals possible

Today's Top Fares List

One of AirFareWatchDog's helpful features for prospective travelers is its "Today's Top Fares" list on the homepage of its site. Fares are not always specific to the destination that a traveler may be searching for, but if it so happens that the destinations and travel times work out, users can take advantage of these discounts. There is also a searching tool within this window that allows travelers to input information and search for specific fares. Because of this feature, many shoppers use AirFareWatchDog to search for airline mistake fares and cheap flights.

Resources

If a traveler is inexperienced or does not know a specific region very well, they can find resources on AirFareWatchDog's platform. The company's travel blog features a number of articles covering several travel topics and destinations. This information can benefit travelers as they prepare to go on a trip.

Limitations

While AirFareWatchDog does offer a number of valuable services, there are a few holes in its platform. The company is really only designed to satisfy booking needs in three areas: flights, hotels, and vacation packages. Beyond that, there is not much that AirFareWatchDog can do to help consumers book travel arrangements, meaning that those who want to book rental cars or cruises will have to look elsewhere.

Rewards Program

Typically, travel booking companies offer incentives for travelers to continue to book through their platforms. However, AirFareWatchDog does not appear to offer a rewards program for travelers who frequently book travel accommodations using its site.

Mobile App

Both Apple and Android users can download the AirFareWatchDog app to help manage travel. While it is nice that the company has developed its own mobile app, it does not necessarily provide anything unique or special. In fact, the app essentially lists the exact same information found on the website, just in a consolidated fashion. There are no additional features or benefits that come along with AirFareWatchDog's mobile app.
