Google Flights announced today new updates around mobile notifications for airfare and hotel costs.

According to a post on Google’s Official Blog, Google Flights will now display when a current fare is expected to expire for a selected flight, and how much will be saved if a user books now.

After selecting a specific flight, a notification may appear letting you know when the current fare is expected to expire and how much you can save if you book.

Google Flights can now help you be more confident that you’re booking your flight at the right time to get the best price. We now show you when prices are expected to increase for some specific flights and routes you’re interested in. Google wrote in a blog post.

You may also see a new tip telling you about an expected price jump based on historic prices for that route. When you tap on the card, you’ll see more details like how much the price is likely to increase and when.

You can choose to track your flight or route and receive notifications via email letting you know when prices are expected to change.

Google Flights is adding a new filter for hotel discounts: “Now if you want to only look at hotel deals — say, to ring in the New Year in Paris — just tap in the upper left to filter for Deals and voilà!”

 

Google will also notify you when savings are available to loyalty members on a hotel’s website.
