Cool travel search feature

Filed under: — Aprille @ 9:55 am

Kayak.com has been my favorite travel search engine for a while now, but Denny just found a cool feature I hadn’t discovered about it.

Check this out: I put in my home airport, some very basic parameters, and it gives me an interactive Google map of places I could go and for what price. You can do it, too; just change CID to your airport of choice and you’re good to go. It would be incredibly useful if you’re itching for a weekend escape but don’t care a whole lot about destination. You can choose by world region or just U.S.

I could see myself dinking around on this a lot today.

P.S. The holiday party was fun and no one made an ass out of him-/herself. I played with lots of cute babies and toddlers.

    Looks like I’ll have to put my dream of a North Dakota Christmas on hold for another year.

    This looks like a (much) better version of Yahoo Dream Maps. I think Travelocity is the engine behind the Yahoo one. Guess it doesn’t really matter since I’ll be using this one from now on!
