Vayama launches international-only flight bookings

International travel booking engine Vayama announced its official launch today. The site’s total focus on international travel makes it unique among online booking agencies.

Just because the site has made its official debut doesn’t mean it hasn’t been around for a while. Last fall, while it was still in beta, Contributing Editor Ed Perkins put Vayama to the test. Just last month, Airfare Editor Jessica Labrencis included it in her roundup of strategies for finding cheaper airfare in 2008.

International flights come with their own set of booking challenges, so I’m interested to see how a site dedicated to it works to make the process easier and more intuitive. But as with any booking site, it probably won’t be able to offer the cheapest airfare all the time, so comparing prices will remain an important part of trip planning.

We hand-pick everything we recommend and select items through testing and reviews. Some products are sent to us free of charge with no incentive to offer a favorable review. We offer our unbiased opinions and do not accept compensation to review products. All items are in stock and prices are accurate at the time of publication. If you buy something through our links, we may earn a commission.
