BRDNG

BRDNG näyttää yhdessä näkymässä kaikki suorat lennot valitsemaltasi lentokentältä — ei vaihtoja, ei turhaa selailua. MITEN SE TOIMII Valitse lähtökenttäsi (esim. Helsinki, Oulu, Tampere) ja näet heti kaikki tulevat suorat lennot kotimaan ja ulkomaiden kohteisiin. Kun löydät kiinnostavan lennon, yksi napautus vie sinut Kayakiin ostamaan lipun — valmiiksi suodatettuna juuri siihen suoraan lentoon ja lähtöaikaan. SELKEÄ JA REHELLINEN - Jo lähteneet lennot poistuvat listalta automaattisesti - Lennot, joiden lähtöön on alle tunti, merkitään selvästi, koska lipun saatavuutta ei enää voida taata EI TILIÄ, EI SEURANTAA BRDNG ei vaadi rekisteröitymistä eikä kerää henkilötietoja. Katso tarkemmat tiedot tietosuojaselosteesta. BRDNG ei myy lentolippuja itse — varsinainen osto tapahtuu Kayakin kautta.
