Why we use Aviasales — and why it’s better for Smart Travelers
Posted on
Most flight search engines show you a price. But not necessarily the best one.
At AirportMix, we don’t send you to just any booking site. We send you to Aviasales. Here’s why that matters — especially if you care about smart routing, transparency, and getting the most value from your flight.
🔍 1. Aviasales is a metasearch engine — not a seller
Unlike sites that sell tickets directly, Aviasales scans hundreds of sellers and shows you the best available options. Airline-direct, OTA, local travel agents — you see them all.
That means you stay in control. You choose who you book with, and you often find deals that bigger platforms miss.
⚙️ 2. Better for multi-airport routes
AirportMix is all about mixing departure and arrival airports — and Aviasales is the perfect engine for that.
- ✅ Handles one-way mixes and multi-city logic
- ✅ Finds creative route pairings between smaller airports
- ✅ Supports our “mix logic” like no other tool
Result: smarter routing, better prices.
🌍 3. More international coverage
Flying to or from a lesser-known airport like Charleroi, Bergamo, or Sofia? Aviasales often shows options Google Flights and Skyscanner ignore — including regional airlines and budget carriers.
💬 4. Real reviews, real transparency
You always know which agency you’re booking with — no surprises. Aviasales shows user ratings for each seller, so you can avoid sketchy agents and stick with trusted ones.
🤑 5. Yes, we earn commission — and that’s a good thing
When you book through our link, we earn a small affiliate commission. But:
- 💸 You don’t pay more
- ✅ You still get the best deal
- 🙏 You help us keep AirportMix free, fast, and ad-free
It’s a win-win-win. And that’s why we’re proud to link to Aviasales — not just because it pays, but because it performs.
