How Eclectic Flights Works — where prices and routes come from, and how results are selected

What you’re seeing: Eclectic Flights combines live fare data with destination insights to help you discover places that are worth visiting before they become overcrowded. We prioritize interesting, under-visited destinations and highlight routes that are realistic to book.

How we build results: We aggregate publicly available flight pricing and availability via our search partners, then layer in destination context (seasonality, typical conditions, and practical travel notes) so you can decide when and why to go — not just what is cheapest.

About “Virtual Interlining”: Some itineraries may combine multiple airlines without a traditional interline agreement. This can unlock routes that are otherwise hard to find, but it can also increase complexity (separate tickets, tighter connections, baggage rules, and responsibility for missed connections).

What we optimize for: practical itineraries, clear trade-offs, and fast discovery. If a route is high-risk (e.g., self-transfer), we aim to signal that clearly so you can choose knowingly.

Why this matters: You spend less time digging through high-volume deal listings, and more time finding destinations that fit your aspirations — with real context to make better decisions.
