What are ‘smart routes’ and why is it cheaper to fly with them

Smart routes are also called “smart connections” because they are a unique search algorithm that connects flights from low-cost carriers and airlines from different alliances. Kupi.com’s new mechanism provides even more options for choosing your flight.

What’s the point?

If you’re facing a long flight, you can’t avoid layovers (by the way, we’ve covered everything about layovers and connecting flights here). Not to mention flying from one end of the world to another. To avoid searching for tickets separately for each leg of the journey, use smart routes. We’ll find a single ticket with varying numbers of layovers, and most importantly, it will be cheaper than a self-planned route or a regular connecting ticket. In the end, you’ll have several tickets in an order that you put together in one search!

Here’s how it works in detail:

— Tickets from “smart routes” are tickets for individual flights. During a layover in the first city, you collect your luggage and go through the re-check-in process for the next flight. Unfortunately, there’s no way around this.

— Each ticket has its own fare rules, exchange, and refund conditions.

— Sometimes the system offers more complex and longer routes — but even then, you save significantly on a one-way ticket. And if you have a visa and free time, you can explore the cities where you have a layover.

Flight search works for round trips. Happy searching on our website and in the app.

Have a comfortable flight!
