[Design Nuances] International flight results enhancements
We recently made a number of minor enhancements and modifications in order to improve the way our international flight results work. Here's a quick round-up of the most important changes:
Grouping itineraries with the same price and airline
With our original design, a roundtrip search for Bombay to London would bring up over a hundred different options. Very often, a lot of the options shown were from a single airline and all at the exact same fare. The differences among these options boil down to differing stopover airports or connecting flights. So, we tweaked the design to show only one of those options with a link to see all the other available options. We think it makes more sense to group these flights together and expose them only to users that have a genuine interest in a specific airline/price combination.

Multiple airline filter
Are you one of those people that avoid mixed airline itineraries like the plague? Flying on an itinerary that contains multiple airlines can cause severe heart burn when flights are delayed or baggage is lost. Now, there's a nifty little filter that will remove all mixed airline itineraries from results with a single click.

Airline alliance filter
Finally, if you're an avid collector of airline miles, we've made it dead simple for you to select an airline that is part of your favourite airline miles program or alliance. Just click on the alliance name to display only those options which will let you earn more miles. We hope we've made it easier for you to never miss out on frequent flier miles ever again.

We've always been big fans of improving all the little things, because it's all the little things that add up to a big difference. We hope these little changes make it easier for you to pick the international flights that suit you best. Go ahead give them a whirl.
