A good unintentional side-effect about Google Flights is that they revert to the currency of the country you're in when you open a new tab

Useful for you, horribly annoying for me when searching flights in Croatia pre-2023 with everything in Croatian kunas.

It's at the bottom of the page on desktop, by the way. Great find I must say, IBZ-FRA is operated by a 757-300 which has been eluding me. Might do this to catch it for cheap before they get retired progressively.
