How it works

Plan it. Save it. We do the checking.

  1. Plan a trip

    Use the planner, free. Shortlist hotels and flights and build a day-by-day itinerary.

    Open the planner

  2. Save it

    Saving a trip puts its hotels and its cheapest flight on watch. Dispatch+ watches every trip you save; a free account watches one at a time.

  3. One email when it drops

    We re-price every day and email you when a price falls. Prices are estimates, so look at the booking page before you rebook.

Before you decide

Do I need Dispatch+ to plan a trip?
No. The planner, the Thursday Dispatch and one weekly fare alert stay free. Dispatch+ lifts the daily limits and adds the watching. A free account watches one saved trip at a time; Dispatch+ is for when you save more than one, want the daily limits gone, or want fare alerts the same day.
What gets watched when I save a trip?
Save a trip and we watch up to three of its hotels and its cheapest flight. Each is re-priced every day, and you get one email when a price drops. Watched prices are estimates: a hotel is the cheapest room at the same property for your dates, a flight is the cheapest fare on the route, not one exact ticket.
How fast will I hear about a drop?
Watched trips and picks are re-priced once a day. If a price has dropped, a Dispatch+ member’s email goes out the same day, at most one alert a day. A free account’s alerts arrive weekly.
Do you show award seats?
No. We do not search live award availability. The award finds we publish, in the Points Report and on Instagram, come from a weekly sweep of a licensed award-data source: each find is stamped with when the source saw the space and credited to that source, and a person checks every find on the programme's own site before it is published. On a flight search each fare also carries an estimate of its price in points, in the program you choose, worked out from the cash fare. It tells you roughly what a seat would cost in points, not whether one exists, so check the programme for seats before you transfer anything.
Will this fill my inbox?
No more than one fare alert a day, from the airports you choose. On a route you watch you can set a price ceiling, so we tell you only when the fare is under it. Every alert email has a link to change or pause your alerts.
What is a mistake fare?
A fare filed at the wrong price: a currency slip, a missing surcharge. They can be short-lived, and airlines sometimes cancel them.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep Dispatch+ until the end of the period you paid for, then your account goes back to the free plan and its free limits. Your saved trips stay saved.
How do I cancel, and can I get a refund?
Cancel any time from Manage billing, which opens Stripe’s billing portal. We email you about a week before every renewal. Ask within 30 days of purchase and we refund the full $69. First purchase only. The free Thursday Dispatch keeps coming either way.Open the contact formRead the terms
