Hello Product Hunt,
I had 2 days off, I wanted to leave town, something new, didn't matter where, just away.
Guess what, you can't just ask Expedia to give all destinations available when you want to leave Tuesday, and return Wednesday.
So I build a search engine myself, to find destinations when I want to leave on Tuesday, and come back on Wednesday!
Flight data is expensive, so for now only 3 origins available: Bangkok, Lisbon, Austin.
Hoping to find a way to build this for all airports globally, or convince a low-cost airline to let me build this for them :)
Note: I realise in an era of climate change flying for the purpose of flying isn't very eco-conscious.
@ayesha_awan1 Thanks, thumbs up for non-mainstream destinations :D !

Finally, a search engine that understands the wanderlust in our souls! 🌍✈️ Your tool to find destinations based on specific travel dates is a game-changer. It's incredible how you took matters into your own hands to solve a common traveler's dilemma. As for the climate change aspect, it's always important to be mindful, and perhaps in the future, there could be ways to incorporate eco-conscious travel options. Wishing you the best on your journey to expand this to airports worldwide!
Interesting tool, Joris! I was looking for something like this for a while. Waiting for you to add London!
Also, I had no idea that flights data is expensive. Is it expensive to buy from the data aggregators? Can you fetch it directly from the airline website?
@critic_rwps Thanks for the feedback!
If this takes off I'll add London next!
I have to buy data from 3rd party aggregators like FlightAware or Amadeus or others, it's a very closed ecosystem. I'm also launching to try to figure out better solutions I might not be aware off.
Even airlines don't have a functionality to look for any all flights on a given day. You always have to enter a destination.
That's why I think this would be a great new feature for low cost airlines :)
