Using Skyscanner to Search Flights

Skyscanner is such a great tool for finding cheap flights. It’s what I use when I start planning my next adventures.

Skyscanner has a really great search option that lets you search for flights anywhere, although it’s actually everywhere on the website!

Follow the post for step-by-step pictures or just watch this video which will walk you through how to do this search yourself.

Set Everywhere as Your Destination

In Skyscanner select the airport you wish to depart from. In this example, we are going to use Edinburgh.

Then select your date of travel. You can either enter a specific date or choose a whole month. Here I have selected March 2023.

Click in the ‘to’ box and the option of everywhere will come up in blue. Then click the green ‘search flights’ button.

Tick any of the options below the search box such as direct flights and nearby airports. For this search, I selected direct flights.

Choose Your Destination Country

After clicking search flights you will get a list of countries and the cheapest prices to those countries, with the cheapest flights at the top.

Choose Your Destination

Simply click on the country for a further drop-down list of the destinations available and the flight costs. In this search, all the results are for direct flights from Edinburgh Airport.

Choose Your Travel Dates

Then click on the destination to see a whole month calendar which will show the flight costs to that destination from your starting airport.

In this search, we can see that there is a cheap flight leaving Edinburgh on the 9th of March for £9 and one returning on the 5th of March for £9.

Click on the dates to select them and then scroll down the page.

There you will see the total cost of the flights.

Click on find flights.

Make Your Final Selection

You will then see the flight details including the flight operator and the timings. At the top, there are options for the ‘best’, ‘fastest’, and ‘cheapest’. In this search, they are all the same option but that’s not always the case.

A little further down the page, you will see the flight options available.

On the left-hand side of the page there are filter options including;

• Direct Flights
• 1+ Stop
• 2+ Stops

There are sliders to select the outbound and return flight times to filter the search results. This can be a very handy filter if you need to change to other or connecting flights.

There is also a slider for flight duration.

Further down on the left-hand side, you can filter results using airlines, either selecting or deselecting airlines to suit your requirements.

There is also a very handy filter on the left-hand side which is to ensure flights fly out of and return to the same airport.
