Before you book: compare the whole journey
A practical checklist for comparing flights beyond the headline fare.
Start with the journey, not just the number
Compare the airports, travel dates and local arrival times before comparing prices. An all-airports search can include different airports in the same city. Check the actual departure and arrival airports on the offer, and plan how you will travel between each airport and your accommodation.
Read the fare conditions
Open the booking provider’s offer and check the final currency, baggage allowance, seat-selection charges, payment fees and change or cancellation terms. Compare like with like. A historical calendar observation is a reference from an earlier search, not a reserved fare or a total for your selected travellers.
Check connections and separate tickets
Read every segment of a connecting or multi-city journey. Check whether tickets are issued together, who is responsible for missed connections and whether baggage must be collected and checked in again. Do not assume that separate bookings provide the same protection as one ticket.
Confirm the essentials before payment
Check names against travel documents, dates, contact details, entry and transit requirements, and the provider’s support channel. Save the confirmation and booking conditions. Payments and booking changes are handled by the airline or booking provider, not FlyDeal365.

Advice depends on your nationality and itinerary. Check your own government and the destination’s authorities as well.
