Farecast.com announced the beta version of Farecast Hotels Search. Farecast customers can now shop for both airline tickets and hotel rooms anywhere in thousands of cities worldwide. With Farecast Hotels, Farecast introduces Hotel Rate Key, an innovative new hotel pricing technology that empowers consumers to know where to stay by indicating if the current rate for a hotel is a deal, or not a deal. The beta launch of Farecast Hotels is an important next step in the evolution of Farecast to bring transparency and help consumers buy with confidence in another critical category of travel.
Farecast’s Hotel Rate Key helps consumers know at a glance if the current rate for a hotel is a deal or not a deal. The initial beta version will utilize historical rates and offer Hotel Rate Keys for over 5,000 hotels in 30 major cities across the country for up to 90 days in the future. Farecast builds the unbiased Hotel Rate Key entirely on science, not marketing.
