7. Farecast
With this we end our run of travel booking aggregator sites. Farecast has a cool difference, however, as its focused on helping travelers know WHEN to book a flight. If you've ever booked a flight a week too late or a week too early, you know timing is everything when you're trying to optimize your travel spending. Farecast uses historical data to help travelers book their tickets at the best time to lock in the best rates.
