Hi HN,

I built this flight search engine three months ago and showed the first functionality here, which was to search for savings. We've since iterated and added a new functionality that allows you to search for an extended layover to enjoy and wanted to get your feedback on this new feature.

Right now, you can use the dropdown menu at the center of the page right below the large double-round image to select how many days you can want to stay at the layover location. We think this user interface can be improved, but we also don't want it to be too prominent as to be confusing to first-time users. Do you guys have any thoughts?

Very much appreciated!

Thanks, Phil

Do you guys post a list of routes with the most savings? I just tried a few and it really seems to work - few hundred bucks per route cheaper than any other site I checked.

I'd love to see where the best savings are available! Bookmarking this site for sure.

Wow! I'll be able to take my wife home to visit her family in Sydney easier thanks to this. Brilliant. Thanks heaps.

Great idea, is it possible to put in an origin and find random flights if you are unsure where you want to go on your vacation?

    Thank you! We don't search all possible destinations yet (but stay tuned for updates), but you'll be able to put your origin in on our recently searched savings tool (http://www.cleverlayover.com/#monitor) and see which destinations have recently had high savings!
