Kayak

For this portion of the assignment I choose Kayak! Lately I feel as if I have been bit by the travel bug. Sometimes I just like to search various travel packages and flight's just to imagine what it would be like to go...and get out of rainy Buffalo! I think Kayak is a great sight because when you enter a search query it compiles the results from every travel/flight booking sight out there. In this way it is somewhat similar to Rollyo, in that it combines many search engines into one. Kayak is also very easy to use. There aren't a whole lot of fancy graphics or annoying ads that are distracting or misleading. One of the best features of Kayak are the filter options for booking flights and trips. There is a filter for stops, flight times (take off and landing), cabin areas, airlines, flight duration, quality of flight, size of plane, price and sites. Although this site isn't a traditional or typical reference site that would be used in libraries, it is still a handy tool that patrons should at least be aware of.
