FareCast, which uses data-mining algorithms to search for patterns, in the accumulated airfare data to tell you whether you should buy an airlines ticket now or wait for few more days, has come out with a product called Fare Guard. I used to use this site a lot when I had a traveling job and found the fare history graph to be a neat tool (Kayak.com has a similar graph).
Fare Guard allows you to protect today’s lowest fare and avoid getting burned by price increases. It gives you peace of mind when you decide to buy later, whether you’re waiting for fares to drop or firming up travel plans.
To learn more, go to How Fare Guard Works. You can also check out a sample Fare Guard or visit Farecast.com to start your own search.
