Flight Alerts?

Apologies in advance if this is in a wrong section or inappropriate, but since people on this board seem to be pretty good with finding deals, I want to ask if this is possible.

I live in ORD. I want to be informed if there are any bargain flights out of ORD regardless of destination (international only) and dates so I can perhaps book random weekend travels.


How can this be done?


Thank you.

Thank you.
You can sign up with farecompare.com and kayak.com for alerts, along with all the major booking sites, but it just best to check the two websites i stated daily or a few days a week to see what pops up, but i check them daily along with this thread or coarse
but this post will be moved to the discussion board to get more advice

Hi RandomTaiwanese,
Welcome to FlyerTalk and the Miileage Run Deals forum.

Since you have not posted a fare 'deal' to share on that forum (the purpose of Mileage Run Deals) and your question is not about a particular Mileage Run (questions in Mileage Run Discussion), I've moved your question to MilesBuzz! forum.

It's worth reading the lowdown on Mileage Run forums, so that you can use it effectively and read and post in the appropriate forum:
http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/milea...rums-work.html

MilesBuzz is a good place for more general tips on how to learn to use tools to assist you with tracking and finding good deals to earn miles.

Regards,
BiziBB, Moderator Mileage Run

Welcome to Flyertalk, RandomTaiwanese!

I second BiziBB's excellent advice to visit the Mileage Run Deals forum, and post your questions there.

In the meantime, I'll close this thread here in MilesBuzz because it isn't really about the lastest frequent flyer program buzz.

Regards,
Gary
