Show HN: Uber for Flights My friend and I built BookMyFlight to finally modernize flight search + booking. Why we built this: - Personalization. I fly the same route every month, and there’s no platform that knows my preferences so that I can open it, find and book my flight, and close it within a minute. - Booking is slow. I hate seeing a long clunky airline form each time I need to book. I want booking a flight to feel more like booking an Uber. How it works: 1. Optionally make an account and save your traveler preferences. Personally, I've specified my routine route as SFO to CLE and that I only want red-eye direct flights for this route. 2. Search for flights using chat or the search panel. Chat feels especially time-saving when you have preferences saved (e.g. I just say “search my routine trip"). 3. Once you find the flight you want, use the one-click book feature which books your flight directly with the airline. The first time you book a flight, you’ll have to fill out your traveler info, but you won't see that form after that. Notes: - Your booking is directly with the airline (this means when something goes wrong, you get direct support from the airline—not a third-party) - You can add your rewards numbers for each airline to keep earning points/status The ultimate goal is to create the best possible experience that every traveler wants, but that OTAs and airlines don’t care to create. Also very receptive to hearing pain points from frequent flyers; we think this space is really outdated and could use some innovation.
