Tech Tuesday: Hopper, Save Money With the Bunny

Save money with the bunny. Hopper is a trendy travel app that tells you when and where to fly and buy, to score you the lowest flight fares. Since flight pricing is so difficult to compare and airfares change minute to minute, many travelers miss out on the best deals. Hopper offers a solution. The app brings speedy, comprehensive flight comparison data, compiled from billions of daily flight prices, right into your hand. Think of Hopper as a traveler’s compass, guiding you in the right flight direction.

Hopper delivers a view of airfares by month and uses a color-coded fever bar to demonstrate daily price fluctuations. Green indicates a good deal, yellow represents an average price, orange marks a more pricy flight, and red signifies an expensive ticket. For example, in the photo below, it’s best to fly from Boston to L.A. in late January as opposed to mid-January as flights are $150-$300 cheaper at that time.
