Friendly flight finder

Flygresor.se is a price comparison site that compares the price of tickets from over 1,000 online travel agencies, regular airlines and low-cost airlines. Finding cheap flights is fast, easy and it’s for free at Flygresor.se. When you find your ticket you purchase/book yourself directly with the airline or online travel agency. Flygresor.se does not sell flight tickets.

When you visit Flygresor.se you can find the cheapest and best trip to the destination of your choice. We can also help you find trips with multiple stops or which go via secondary airports. You can also use our unique search functions to search up to 15 destinations simultaneously and mix and match with our Price calendar, or put a price alert on your planned trip(s) for those dates you want to travel.

Flygresor.se is a product of Flightmate AB, Sweden. Since 2007, Svenska Flightmate, via the brand name Flygresor is Sweden’s biggest cheap flights comparison search engine. It is our ambition to be your local choice too. We want Flightmate to be the world’s most user-friendly and social search engine for cheap flights and your user experience means everything to us. We are always looking to improve our service, develop new, useful functions and offer trips from an airport near you. Travelling is something social and positive, and our aim is that the booking is too.

The easy-to-use Flygresor.se search box lets you search and compare prices on one-way flights and return flights.

Flygresor.se compares prices from all leading travel agencies who, in turn, provide tickets from over 800 regular airlines and 100 low-cost airlines spanning the globe. That is why you will find the cheapest and best alternatives for your trip at Flygresor.se.

By default, flygresor.se lists search results in price order, with the lowest price on top. You can change the order of this information, for example by fastest travel time, or by best possible results, which means that you see the best combinations of travel time and price at the top.

In addition to changing the sort order, you can also filter out unwanted search results. For example high prices, long transfer times, transfers on unwanted airports or trips that require a change of airports. You can also filter by payment method, travel agencies and airlines.

A useful tip if you are travelling long-haul; sort by “travel time” and use the “price filter” to filter out the most expensive flights, in order to search for a ticket that combines low price and short travel time.

Are you waiting for prices for a certain destination to fall? Let Flygresor.se help you by creating a watch list that automatically informs you via email when the price to a selected destination falls below a certain price.

How we rank CO₂ emissions

commissioned the world famous KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm and Stockholm University to help develop a mathematical model to estimate C02 emissions produced by flights and a multitude of additional factors. With KTH’s help and expertise we hope to refine and develop the model and encourage others to contribute their data and research so that we can make it as accurate and as easy-to-understand as possible. Quite simply, we want to empower you to make informed decisions about the environmental consequences of flying. One very pleasing result from the study is that just because a flight is more expensive, it is does not automatically mean that it is better for the environment. It’s quite the opposite in many cases and means that even if you buy cheap flight tickets you can limit your environmental impact. But what you need to know is which cheap flight ticket you should buy.

The parameters

• Fuel consumption on start, taxiing, take-off, flying at cruising altitude and approach.
• Distance covered; an approximation of the actual distance, not just in a straight line.
• If the aircraft is equipped with winglets (wingtips devices that control aircraft drag)
• Increased effect of cloud formation when flying at high altitude
• Seating configuration of relevant airline’s aircraft type on the route
• Seat occupancy rate for the relevant airline
• Carbon dioxide conversion factor to calculate the amount of CO₂ per kg of aviation fuel

Impact of data quality

Data gathered from airlines, travel agencies and others is not always of the highest quality and we have used approximations based on relevant routes and airlines in this case. The airline and travel industry is improving at providing primary, real-time data and this will increase the quality of the calculations.

After analysing a huge amount of data on actual flight routes, aircraft types and configurations used on relevant routes, there exist approximated values on actual routes, airlines and aircraft types based on data being of deficient quality at the time of the user performing the search.

General conclusions

Fewer stopovers, more modern aircraft and more passengers per flight have less impact on the environment, as do airlines with modern fleets that configure their aircraft with more seats. But even a flight with an airline with older aircraft that is configured to carry more passengers, or is a direct flight, produces the same effect. You may think that this gets very complex and you would be right. That is why you should only use this tool for your planned trip to figure out the optimal conditions between your various travel options, based on airline, aircraft and actual route. This is why you should not arrive at the hasty conclusion that you should only ever choose one, particular airline. Instead you should take the whole picture into account when the model is applied in the search results.

Have a great trip!

Biofuel

Flygresor.se collaborates with Fly Green Fund, a non-profit economic association, which provides companies and individuals the opportunity to reduce the carbon footprint of their air travel through the purchase of biofuels. 75% of the funds are used for the purchase and delivery of sustainable fuel to airports, where it is blended as part of the fuel used to refuel aircraft at that specific airport. 25% of the funds are allocated to support the operations of Fly Green Fund, including procurement, distribution, and advocacy.

When biofuel is used in aviation fuel, it reduces the actual greenhouse gas emissions in aviation operations because biofuel is not made from fossil resources.

Climate compensation

Our partner for Climate compensation is Go Climate Neutral.

Flygresor.se provides several tools, such as the Price cutter and Price calendar, to help visitors find the cheapest flight.

Vad är det för pris som visas i resultatlistan?

Priset som visas är det lägsta möjliga priset och gäller i många fall endast vid val av en specifik betalmetod. Resebyrån eller flygbolaget som säljer resan kan ange detta pris som rabatterat. Oftast men inte alltid är den betalmetod som ger det lägsta priset direktbetalning via internetbank. Men i samtliga fall är den rabatterade betalmetoden tillgänglig för merparten av konsumenterna.

Can you send me a quote for a trip

Flygresor.se does not sell anything and consequently, cannot provide quotes. Flygresor.se provides web services to enable you to compare prices from the cheapest airlines and online travel agencies.

Can I call anyone for help with booking a flight?

Flygresor.se is an online service through which you can search for the cheapest flight yourself. The prices are retrieved from the largest and cheapest airlines/travel agencies and apply when you make the booking yourself with each airline/travel agency. If you still require phone support, some online travel agencies provide a support phone number, but it commonly involves other prices than those shown at Flygresor.se

As Flygresor.se does not sell flights, Flygresor.se is unable to provide phone support.

Om du har bokat men inte fått någon bokningsbekräftelse?

Om du inte har fått någon bokningsbekräftelse kan det bero på flera saker, det vanligaste är att du skrivit fel epostadress vid bokningen på resebyråns hemsida. Då kan du vända sig direkt till resebyrån där du köpt din flygbiljett och be dem skicka ut den på nytt.

Om du inte vet hos vilken resebyrå du köpt din biljett kan du kontrollera med den bank till vilken resebyrå du har betalat. Ett annat knep är att kolla webbläsarhistoriken på datorn eller mobiltelefonen där genomfört köpet. Då ser du vilken resebyrå-sida du varit på.

Can I search for flights with stop-overs?

Flygresor.se only provides flights between two locations with no stop-overs. If you would like another type of ticket, please contact the airline or travel agency to find a suitable solution.

Can I bring my dog on the plane?

Flygresor.se does not sell flights, but is a price comparison site that helps the visitor find the cheapest airline/travel agency. You need to contact the airline directly to find out about the rules regarding travelling with animals. The rules vary depending on airline and destination.

How much luggage can I bring?

Flygresor.se does not sell flights, but is a price comparison site that helps the visitor find the cheapest airline/travel agency. Any questions concerning the flight and the booking must be addressed to the travel agency or airline with which you make the booking. The rules vary depending on the airline, the ticket and the destination.

I found a cheap flight yesterday, but it seems to be gone today. Will the price come back again?

Flygresor.se is a price comparison site with prices from different online travel agencies and airlines. Flygresor.se does not sell any flights or set any prices. Consequently, Flygresor.se cannot affect which flights are included in the price comparison. When you find a cheap ticket, you need to be quick to book it if you want to make sure you get it.

Why is it more expensive to book two tickets than one?

The reason is that airlines use a system of of different price/booking classes in which the price increases with each seat sold. For example, if there is only one seat available in the lower booking class (X) and you try to book two seats, most airlines will book both seats in the higher booking class (Y). So it may pay off to buy the two tickets separately (X + Y) instead of buying them together, but you also risk something going wrong or being unable to sit together. Some airlines or travel agencies give you an error message if you try to make a booking with seats in two different booking classes.

Why does the price not match when I click on a link to a travel agency?

When you perform a search at Flygresor.se, the travel agencies' and airlines' systems are searched in real time for the availability on the different GDSs. These are advanced and complex systems managing billions of flights and constantly changing prices so occasionally errors occur, but all parties involved are working to minimise them.

A common problem is when you are booking several tickets where there are insufficient seats in one price/booking class for all travellers (see question "Why is it more expensive to book two tickets than one?"). Sometimes prices may also be displayed for flights that just sold out or where someone made a reservation but has not yet paid. Keep in mind that prices of flights fluctuate with the dollar rate, supply, demand, airline and travel agency campaigns as well as a number of other factors.

How can a flight be available at Flygresor.se, when it is sold out at all travel agencies?

Most airlines sell their tickets through a so-called GDS (Amadeus, Sabre or Worldspan). The agencies have agreements with one or several GDSs and sell flights that are available at the GDS. If a flight sells out with one GDS, the flight will be sold out with all travel agencies that use that same GDS. In some cases, it may be that someone has reserved a ticket but not yet paid for it. If payment is not made in time, the ticket may become available again.

How do I change the date of my flight?

Most cheap flights cannot be cancelled or rebooked. The pre-requisite for buying a cheap flight is to know beforehand the travel date and that you cannot change this date after purchase. If you purchase a flight and need to rebook it, you can contact the online travel agency or airline you booked with to see if they can assist you in finding a solution. If you know beforehand that you may need to rebook your flight, you can buy a more expensive ”flex” ticket directly from the airline.

How do I cancel my ticket?

Most cheap flights cannot be cancelled or rebooked. If you purchase a flight and are unable to travel, you can contact the online travel agency or airline you booked with to see if they can assist you in finding a solution. If you know beforehand that you may have to cancel your flight, you can buy a more expensive ”flex” ticket directly from the airline.

Remember to review your insurance before booking your ticket, so that you know the conditions concerning travel cancellation. A simple travel insurance is commonly included in your home insurance policy or if you pay using a bank/credit card. There is also complementary and more comprehensive insurance available from the insurance company or online travel agency/airline when you book your ticket.

Will I receive a paper ticket?

Almost all airlines have switched to electronic tickets, which means that all the passenger information is stored in the airline's computer system and all you need to present at check-in is your passport and you will receive your boarding card. More and more airlines also provide an electronic check-in option at the airport, at home on your computer or via your mobile phone. All online travel agencies and airlines send a confirmation of your booking after you made it. If you have not received a confirmation, check if it was caught by your spam filter.

Can I check that my booking is made correctly?

Most online travel agencies and airlines book their tickets through a so-called GDS (Amadeus, Sabre or Worldspan). Based on which GDS is used, it is possible to check your booking on different sites

• Amadeus – http://www.checkmytrip.com
• Sabre – http://www.virtuallythere.com
• Worldspan – http://mytripandmore.com

Some low-cost airlines dot not use a GDS and their tickets/bookings can only be checked with each respective airline.

Can I trust the travel agencies participating in the price comparison at Flygresor.se?

Flygresor.se only works with major, well-known and professional travel agencies that have been in operation for a minimum of 12 months. Flygresor.se continuously stays updated about the market and participating travel agencies in order to help our visitors avoid unreliable operators. Please note that Flygresor.se in some instances show prices from foreign travel agencies that may have a lower service level or longer response time than local travel agencies. It is important for the customer to read all the information provided on those pages when booking.

Competition for customers is intense, which puts pressure on ticket prices. The flip side of this is that the service level at some travel agencies can be quite low. Pay attention when booking to ensure that you select the right service level, in case you need to contact the travel agency after booking.

What happens to my flight if an airline goes bankrupt?

It is very unfortunate for the people involved when airlines go bankrupt, but it does happen a few times every year. The following happens in case of bankruptcy

• If you purchased a package tour, i.e. flight + accommodation in a booking with the same travel agency, the travel guarantee applies and you are compensated by Kammarkollegiet (the Legal, Financial and Administrative Services Agency). Find out more about the travel guarantee at Kammarkollegiet.
• If you purchase a flight with a credit card, you are protected by the Consumer Credit Act and you need to file a complaint with the card issuer, which will compensate you for the flights you were unable to use.
• In some instances, when you pay using a bank card, the bank/card issuer assume responsibility and reimburse you for any lost flights. Please contact your bank/card issuer to find out more.
• Most travel agencies offer a bankruptcy insurance that provides some protection in case of airline bankruptcy. As always, it is important to find out what coverage an insurance includes before buying it.
• Please note that direct payment via your online bank does not normally include insurance against airline bankruptcy.
