Overview

We’re obsessed with helping people see the world for far less money than they ever thought possible.

Our business model is simple: our team of flight experts search for incredible deals on international flights 24/7. When we find a cheap flight that passes our stringent quality standards (factors include ticket price, itinerary, airline reputation and extra fees and more), we email members with details and booking instructions.

Our vision is to be the first place people turn when planning or booking an international trip.

Over 1,500,000 members around the world!

Since opening our platform to the public in 2015, more than 1,500,000 people around the world have joined and saved over $100 million on international flights!

We work remotely.

We’re a 100% remote company, with team members distributed around the globe in over a dozen countries.

Please note: While this role is open to candidates located anywhere, we do require several hours a day of availability during Pacific Time for team collaboration. Additionally, this role is open only to candidates eligible to work in the United States.
