One of my biggest beefs is that I can either search by price OR schedule but not both. I'm willing to pay more for a better schedule (and my company's policy supports it), but not double. It seems like the search engine is optimized to only show me certain flights/fares when I choose price, and schedule doesn't have fares until I'm done choosing.
Therefore, I spend a lot of time going back and forth choosing different schedules, and sometimes the price is equal or even less than the "price" based search will show me.
The new site, at least for me, is not very fast (then again neither was the old) so this wastes a lot of time.
Is there a reason for this? Why can't they just show you all available flights and associated fares?
I agree. It's very annoying. I would like to have all of my options and all of the prices right there. I hate choosing my perfect schedule and then finding out three pages later that it's
3x the price. Tell me when I'm choosing it! I usually use kayak or google flight search to find my desired flights and then go and find them on Delta. Seems to work much better.
