Why doesn't the price on the provider website match the price on KAYAK Explore?
KAYAK Explore shows you prices that other users found in the last 48 hours. Think of these as snapshots of recent deals rather than guaranteed fares. Here’s why the price can change when you click through:
- Airline seats are priced dynamically and can change frequently. The fare you see on Explore may no longer be available by the time you click, especially if other travelers are booking the same flights at the same time.
- The prices shown reflect limited seats that may not be available on all flights or days. Once those seats are gone, the price goes up.
- KAYAK gathers results from hundreds of travel sites but doesn’t control or guarantee the prices from other companies. We show you what’s available, but the provider sets the final price.
- Explore prices include taxes and fees but may not include baggage fees charged by carriers. Your final cost can change once you add baggage or other options.
