Google’s Flights service has created two very useful services for users. Thus, users will be warned in advance about flight delays and will receive more information about cheap flights.<\/p>\n

Using algorithms, Google Flights will scan through the history of flights that had delays, and based on the data obtained, it will be able to estimate flight delays, as well as the cause of the delays (weather, air traffic reasons). When the information is 80% certain, a message will be delivered to users.<\/p>\n

Another feature offered by Google Flights is providing information about the services that low-cost companies include or do not include in the fare (checked baggage or free snacks during the flight).<\/p>\n

A month ago, Google’s Flights service began offering features for tracking the price evolution of airline tickets.
