flights
A flight search platform known for combining separate airline tickets into one itinerary ('virtual interlining').
flight searchvirtual interlining
Kiwi.com's distinguishing feature is virtual interlining — combining flights from airlines that don't have a partnership agreement with each other into a single connecting itinerary, sometimes producing routes or prices that don't show up when searching one airline alliance at a time. It also offers its own optional 'Kiwi.com Guarantee' protection for these self-combined itineraries.
Best for: unusual or unconventional routes, especially where combining budget carriers might beat a standard connecting itinerary
Strengths
- virtual interlining can surface routes and price combinations standard search doesn't
- own guarantee product for self-combined itineraries
Worth knowing
- a self-combined itinerary carries more risk if one leg is delayed
- since the airlines involved have no partnership obligation to rebook you — worth understanding before relying on it for a tight connection

- flexible search filters
- Pricing
- Free to search; fares are set by the airlines, with an optional paid guarantee product for self-combined itineraries.
