Interesting, but how does this translate into concrete savings for me? Any concrete examples?

Of course. Look at the San Francisco to Vancouver (return) example:

Regular: SFO - YVR: $385 Tripdelta: Oakland - Bellingham (two tickets): $164

You save $221 by picking two airports that are, by locals, considered good airports (I live in Vancouver, we all use Bellingham!)

The great thing is: Even when you're not a local, you just enter Vancouver, and we know about it!

Thanks for pulling this out. Even though I assume this is a best case example, savings in that are interesting for sure. Will check you guys out for my next booking!

Thanks for that. Actually, the example above does not showcase a unique flight combination but something like this happens rather often. I hope next time you check it out you'll face something similar.

Let us know about it ;)
