We recently made a small improvement to our domestic flight results–we now display your flight selection next to the book button. We display the information there to make it easy for to double check your flight details and prices before you proceed to your booking.
We’re strong believers in the power of small improvements, because all the little things add up to a big difference.
We noticed and we think it is cool! Btw, don’t need commas after flight number and timings. Line break is already there.
there’s gotta be more to life than design
Hey very cool. Please also consider boxing that unit with a headline like "Selected Flights" or something. It may not be apparent to everyone as to what this listing is.
May I also suggest:
- Reviewing the labelling through the checkout process to better demarcate the PASSENGER INFORMATION with the BILLING INFORMATION. I know enough people who have entered their own name as passengers when actually they were just paying with their own credit card while booking for someone else.
- Displaying the cheapest fare +/- 5 days when people search for flexible dates. Everyone may not be clicking around on different dates to see which is cheapest. Yahoo does this pretty well.
- Segregating your offers on the homepage with sub-heads like flight offers, hotel offers, etc. and not more than 3 per category. You could put MORE links below each if you have more. This should make that long list a much more effective piece of communication.
- I trust you are already working on a simple "this flight with a hotel for X days for just Rs. XXX" type of unit ala travelocity. (I suppose this depends on the demand for your hotel search).
- Vacation planning tool. Start with point of origin, then add flexi bars for how many days, what budget, any destinations in mind already, etc. and voila – Cleartrip gives you a travel itinerary, complete with travel and hotel deal.
- Marking key national holidays on your date selector tool itself. So many people want to plan their trips around diwali, dussera, christmas, etc. Why should they have to go to another website to check out the dates when you could display it right there through a simple highlight.
