Google Flight Explorer Gone??
 
Starting yesterday I noticed that Google Flight Explorer was removed and just redirects you to the "normal" Google Flights map. I really liked their Flight Explorer page to find Mileage runs because you could specify that you wanted a trip from a certain airport to different regions and specify the number of days.

Does anybody else have any information on this??

I sure hope this isn't a case of Google removing functional tools just because they feel like it.

Thanks!

It's the same here and everywhere, no announcement, simply gone yesterday morning

I think that's exactly the case, Google doing whatever it wants (removing Google Reader, GF Explorer, etc...)

Try again. It is working for me at the moment.

I used the explore link, but i think it may have just directed me to Google Flights. It was late ;)

There haven't been any announcements either way, but it might not be permanent: http://cheerio.ca/news/google-flight...e-coming-back/

Thanks for that link. Based on that, it sounds very promising that it will be back.
