Google introduces Flight Search services

Google has launched a new flight search feature for its users.
The company revealed Google Flight Search in a surprise move this week, adding a link to 'flights' for users who type a query with the format "flights from" in the US.
At the moment, the product is US-only and limited to economy-class flights, but Google says that it will be rolling it out further, and, in a move that is likely to frustrate travel search competitors such as Expedia and Priceline, the tool only allows booking via airline websites, effectively cutting online travel agencies out altogether.
With this first step in flight search that combines ITA’s expertise with Google’s technology, you will be able to:

• Get super-fast results. Speed is critical to all the things we love on the web, and travel planning should be no exception. Making changes to dates, destinations, and filters should be as fast as we hope you’ve come to expect from Google. 

• See a simple list of the most relevant flights. Flight Search shows you an easy-to-scan list to help you get to your destination quickly and inexpensively. 

• Figure out when to travel. Quickly see which travel dates are least expensive by dragging the date selector forward or backward, or check out the bar chart to compare lots of dates at once. 

• Consider your destination options. Flight Search helps you explore possible destinations, letting you filter them by airline, flight time and price. For example, you can use the map and filters to see where you can go from San Francisco within 3 hours for less than $300.
