We prioritize quality over quantity rather than follow a strict quota, sending only deals we would book ourselves.

Free and premium subscribers have the option to receive deals departing from Salt Lake City, Las Vegas, Provo, St. George, Boise and/or Idaho Falls. You can update your preferences by logging into your Flights From Home account and visiting the “Email Alerts” page.
-
There isn’t a set time frame for when deals pop up. We generally see flight deals for destinations ranging from 1-9 months in advance, but that can vary.
If you have a specific destination you’re hoping for, be sure to add it to your Bucket List by logging into your account. You can add up to three bucket list destinations at a time. If a deal becomes available for one of your bucket list destinations, we’ll find it!
-
We send detailed booking instructions via email for every deal we find. You can scroll down to the booking link that will direct you to where you can book your flights. You can then use the calendar view to select dates and prices that work for you. Once you’ve selected your dates, you can select your flights and continue through the booking process.
TIP: We recommend booking directly through the airline whenever possible. Third party bookings can be great when flight prices are higher on airline websites, but remember to book directly through the airline if it’s an option.
-
While we do offer you the ability to select your departure airports, we do not have a feature that allows you to only see deals to specific destinations.
A lot of our subscribers use our deals to book trips to destinations they hadn’t ever thought of traveling to, and we love seeing those life changing experiences!
Keep in mind that if you are watching for a deal to a specific destination, you’ll want to sign up for one of our paid subscriptions. That is the best way to make sure you don’t miss the next one that pops up!
-
Absolutely! Your Flights From Home subscription gives you access to all of our cheap flight alerts. We alert you when flights are really cheap, and you can then use the booking link to select the deal for as many passengers as you’d like.
TIP: If the price per person increases when you change the number of passengers, this likely means the airline does not have enough tickets at the lower price for the number of people you’re booking for, so they bump you up to the higher price. Book passengers individually to take advantage of the lower price.
-
If the price increases when you select your flights, the deal is likely expiring or expired. You can use the flexible dates calendar to see if there are other dates available, but if you’re unable to select flights without the price jumping, the deal is gone.
-
Due to the nature of our service, we are unable to take custom requests. We always welcome your requests to give us an idea of what our subscribers are looking for, though we aren’t able to guarantee a deal will pop up.
Our team is constantly scouring the web for all available deals though, so you can rest assured that if a deal does pop up, you will absolutely receive it!
-
Our Luxury subscription includes deals for premium economy, business, and first class deals out of SLC! Use this link to read more about how those deals can save you thousands of dollars out of SLC.
For all other cities, the deals we find are usually for basic economy.
-
Even with the latest technology, airlines can still make mistakes. Human error and occasional computer glitches can work in your favor, resulting in extremely cheap airline tickets known as mistake fares. These fares are rare, but we do find them from time to time.
-
Only the best deals will make it to your inbox. We don’t like receiving emails from airlines notifying us of a sale, only to realize that the sale only saves $50. The deals we send are good.
We search diligently for unadvertised sales, mistake fares, and price wars. These are deals you probably wouldn’t hear about otherwise.
We don’t receive any commission for the deals we send out. We aren’t affiliated with any airlines, online travel agencies, or websites. Why this matters: we are only motivated to help you find and book the best deals. Often, blogs or travel agents only send out deals from airlines or websites that are paying them. We search for all the deals.
We care. We’re real people who love to travel and want to help you get out there for a decent price. We use the deals as much as anybody and are so excited when we hear you’ve booked your next trip because of these emails!
