Skyscanner launches WhoFlies Widget

Flight search engine Skyscanner has launched the WhoFlies widget, the second in a series of Skytools –a suite of free widgets/APIs/integrations that allows third party websites to display Skyscanner’s flight information on their own sites.

The new widget can be embedded onto third party sites and shows visitors which airlines fly from their nearest airport to their chosen destination. Users can then click on a button to view the cheapest flights for the route on the Skyscanner website.

Available in industry standard sizes, the WhoFlies widget is fully configurable, allowing webmasters to display a fixed departure point, fixed destination point or a fixed departure and destination.

Webmasters can also select to display results in their preferred language from a choice of 20, including: Spanish, German, French, Russian and Korean. The unit dynamically updates when new airlines are added to a route.
