Kwam deze tip tegen op de Lifehacker site. Je kan er niet direct boeken maar wel op vele manieren zoeken naar goedkope vluchten. Matrix (http://matrix2.itasoftware.com/) wordt gebruikt door Orbitz, Kayak, Cheaptickets etc (die er dan weer hun reclame etc aan toevoegen)


Matrix Is the No-Nonsense Flight Pricing Engine that Powers the Others (http://lifehacker.com/5610737/matrix-is-the-no+nonsense-flight-pricing-engine-that-powers-the-others)

ITA Software's Matrix is the software that powers Orbitz, Kayak, CheapTickets, and lots of airlines and travel agents' tools. But you can skip all their ads and come-ons and search Matrix itself for the no-nonsense scoop on flying cheap.
There's not much to not like about how Matrix gets its job done. You know how you're asked to "Please wait while SuperDuperFlights finds you the best fares!" That wait is cut nearly in half on Matrix. You can view a standard comparison of airline fares from one city to another on certain days, but if you're looking for something a bit more specific—flying in and out of multiple cities, for instance—the "More Options" button lets you do what you will across the nation's airways.

The calendar view of the cheapest days for flying is another handy feature, though that's offered on other flight comparison sites, too. Commenters at The Consumerist blog point out that hardcore business travelers can get a lot more out of Matrix by learning some of its simple flight codes.
How about it, frequent fliers? Are you Matrix masters, or do you use another tool to get around the world (personal assistants don't count). Matrix is a free site, with an iPhone app offered, too.

Bedankt NJIT, dat soort sites vind ik echt geweldig. Lekker rond snuffelen en de volgende vakantie gaan plannen.
