Webjet - Deal Finder Maps Launch
27th August 2008
Webjet have now released another revolutionary airfare shopping feature for all users.
Webjet have integrated 'The Deal Finder' with Google Maps™ to create this extraordinary new travel tool which gives customers a birds eye view of all the cheapest international airfares within each region (Asia, Europe, New Zealand, North America, UK & Ireland).
Each destination has a content bubble which provides users with the price, including taxes, and the airline within the selected region. An easy to use 'slide bar' located above the map, allows the customer to scan across different dates of departure to find the best deal within a months timeframe.
The process is done in a matter of seconds and on one screen.
Webjet CEO Richard Noon said, "Being able to see the best fares for a variety of airlines to a range of cities at once, rather than by one city pair at a time, adds a new dimension to airfare shopping for Webjet customers. And having this spread of information instantly available online 24/7, arranged in such a logical, user friendly display empowers travelers as never before. It has to be seen to be believed".
Similar to Webjet's Deal Finder 'Grid View' and 'Chart View', our new 'Map View', uses the results of genuine airfare searches previously conducted by Webjet customers.
Deal Finder Maps is currently available for use for airfares to Asia, Europe, New Zealand, North America, UK & Ireland). It will be available for other cities over the coming weeks as per customer demand.
