What we watch

Four kinds of moment worth an email.

Most travel newsletters send on a schedule. We send when something happens — and only the four things that are actually worth your attention.

Hourly
Scan cadence
1 a day
Your maximum, set by you
Every type can be switched on, off or throttled — and quiet hours mean nothing lands at 4am unless you asked it to.
01
Mistake fares
Fares filed at the wrong price — a currency slip, a missing surcharge. Minutes to hours of life, which is the entire reason the scanners run hourly.
What one looks likeSFO → Tokyo, $214 return. Live for 2 hours.
02
Price drops
Real falls on the routes you track, not every wobble. Set a floor and we stay quiet until a fare goes under it.
What one looks likeJFK → Rome, $1,010 → $389. Held 14 hours.
03
Transfer bonuses
The bonuses banks run from transferable points to airline partners, watched automatically and confirmed against two independent sources before we tell you — a deliberate day or two of delay in exchange for not sending you a number that turns out to be wrong.
What one looks like30% transfer bonus → Aeroplan, confirmed.
04
Devaluation warnings
When a programme announces a change, the same two-source check applies — you hear about it while there is still time to act, with numbers we’re confident in.
What one looks likeA major transferable-points programme repricing its hotel chart.

Before you decide

What if I don't fly that often?

Then one trip a year is the whole case. A single mistake fare can save more than a decade of membership. If you fly once, you’re ahead.

Will this fill my inbox?

One alert a day, maximum, and only for airports you’ve chosen. Most members get three or four a week. You set the floor — only tell me when it drops below X.

Do I book through destination.com?

No. We send you the fare and the fastest route to book it — airline direct, wherever it's cheapest. We don't take a cut of your ticket.

What's a mistake fare?

A fare loaded at the wrong price — a currency slip, a missing fuel surcharge, a bad filing. They're real tickets at a fraction of the usual price, and they disappear as soon as someone notices. You don't need to know anything about points to book one; you just need to hear about it first.

Do you cover departures outside the US?

UK and EU origins are covered on the free Thursday digest today, and Dispatch+ coverage for UK, EU, Canada and Australia/New Zealand origins is expanding through the year. Prices are shown in the currency of the fare.

Are these fares real — can I actually book them?

Every alert is verified on the airline's own booking page before it goes out, and we tell you where to book it. Mistake fares can be pulled — airlines occasionally void them — so we flag which ones look durable and which to hold off celebrating.

What happens to my alerts if I cancel?

You keep everything until the end of the period you paid for, then drop to the free tier — your airports, programs and watched trips stay saved. Rejoin later and it all switches back on.

How do I cancel?

Two clicks in your account settings, any time. We email you before every renewal, and if the year didn't save you $69 we refund it. The free newsletter keeps coming either way.
