# Google Flights Search Search Google Flights via agent-browser to find flight prices, schedules, and availability. ## Prerequisites Requires `agent-browser` CLI: ```bash npm install -g agent-browser && agent-browser install ``` ## When to Use - User asks to search/find/compare flights or airfare - User wants to know flight prices between cities - User asks about flight schedules or availability - User wants to find the cheapest flight for specific dates - **Southwest flights**: Google Flights is one of the only sources for SW cash prices. No GDS or API returns Southwest. ## When NOT to Use - **Completing purchases**: This skill finds flights and extracts booking links, but do not attempt to complete a purchase on a booking site. - **Hotels/rental cars**: Use other tools for non-flight travel searches. - **Historical price data**: Google Flights shows current prices, not historical. ## Session Convention - **Economy + Business comparison** (default): `--session econ` and `--session biz` - **Single cabin search**: `--session flights` - **Interactive fallback**: `--session flights` ## Fast Path: URL-Based Search (Preferred) Construct a URL with a natural language `?q=` parameter.

Where does this skill come from?
From borski/travel-hacking-toolkit, a repository with 611 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
