cFares harnesses the complexity of identifying more air travel options, to ensure that the lowest priced flights are chosen as often as possible. Consumers can see how much money they are saving because of the entire array of web markets, including wholesalers and Dynamically Priced Fares (DPE) from cFares technology.
Using its comprehensive air-travel search engine, cFares brings a much needed solution to both travelers and carriers. Travelers can search across hundreds of websites and multiple carriers, including the discount carriers and wholesalers and get a detailed comparison of their itinerary – all in the time it would take to check just one site. cFares’ carrier partners benefit from the DPE which insures that a visitor to the cFares site always sees the carrier partner’s dynamically priced fare at the point of sale as the lowest.
