Spontaneous travel ideas
Spontaneous travel isn’t about being unprepared — it’s about being flexible. When you’re flexible on dates and destinations, you can often find cheaper flights and better timing.

Why flexibility is cheaper
Airlines price by demand. If you can shift by a day or swap the destination, you can “route around” expensive dates and find the pockets of cheap availability.
How Wingit helps
You pick what you care about (budget, rough timing, airports you’ll tolerate). Wingit does the scanning and surfaces options you might not have thought to search for.
