Travel search engine kayak.co.uk, a new online tool designed to help customers narrow their searches without having to click back and re-enter search criteria, has been launched.
After displaying initial search results, kayak.co.uk allows consumers to refine results, using slider bars, rather than returning to the search screen.
Called Search by Segment, the feature allows users to filter flight results, for example, by departure and arrival times, airport, stopover duration and price. Criteria can also be saved if customers frequently require the same flight details, which would appeal to business travellers.
Kayak.co.uk business development director Annie Wilson said: “Searching for the right deal is even more important when prices are high and budgets are tight.
“Search by Segment is one way that kayak.co.uk’s filtering and sorting tools make it easy to find the most affordable travel dates as quickly and easily as possible.”
Kayak also searches hotels, car hire and trip ideas.
