What is a direct flight?
The phrase 'direct flight' means something a bit different in the airline industry than it probably does to you and me. A direct flight is any flight between two points that doesn't change flight numbers. This means that even though we call it a direct flight, there may be one or stops at intermediate points. Flights with no intermediate stops are normally called non-stop flights.
Unfortunately, it's not always possible to get a non-stop flight to where you want to go. But, if time is of the essence, we can help you find the flight with the shortest journey time so you can get to your destination as quickly as possible. Simply select our 'Fastest Flight' filter to find the flight with the earliest arrival time. Here's how you do it:

How can I find direct flights?
You can find the most direct flight with the shortest journey time easily at Alternative Airlines. All you have to do is use our handy 'fastest journey time' flight filter to sort the flights by the quickest and most direct route.
Why are direct flights more expensive?
The reason that direct flights are sometimes more expensive is a more direct route results in fewer stops. Therefore, the airline is counting on high demand for the flight. This means that an airline might charge a slightly higher price to cover any losses if it's unable to fill the plane.
Direct flights aren't ALWAYS more expensive, though. For example, if the route is a popular and the airline can easily fil up the flight, there's no reason for the airline to charge extra. Sometimes, a direct flight can actually be cheaper than stopping at other destinations on the way.
