FareArena Expands Flight Comparison Coverage to 200+ Countries

The world is a big place and for too long travellers outside of North America and Western Europe have had to suffer through incomplete search tools, limited airline inventory and pricing that never quite reflected what was actually available. Today that is changing. FareArena has officially expanded its flight comparison coverage to over 200 countries, making it one of the most comprehensive fare search engines on the planet.

In addition to expanding FareArena’s reach in Europe, the expansion will bring FareArena’s real-time fare aggregation technology to regions that have traditionally been underserved by global booking platforms, including Central Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa, the Pacific Islands, and parts of Latin America where regional carriers dominate the market. Real flight comparison has been largely inaccessible to travellers in these areas. That’s what FareArena aims to solve.

What the Expansion Actually Covers

This is not a cosmetic change. FareArena’s Global Expansion Brings 340+ New Airline Partners to Its Growing Network, Including Top International Airlines and the Regional Airlines that Power Air Travel in Dozens of Countries The platform now indexes fares from 600+ airlines around the world – including low-cost carriers, charter operators and flag carriers that previously had been outside the reach of mainstream comparison engines.

Coverage has increased significantly in six key regions. The expansion will see full integration with regional budget carriers flying short-haul routes across Indonesia, Vietnam and the Philippines - markets where domestic air travel is booming, but fare transparency has lagged. FareArena’s coverage now includes intra-continental routes across 47 countries in Africa, giving travellers access to pricing data that was previously only available through local travel agents or on individual airline portals.

Coverage of the Middle East and Central Asia has also been significantly improved, with new additions including carriers from the Gulf region and emerging airlines from Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Azerbaijan. Further coverage of domestic Brazilian routes, Chilean carriers and the expanding network of low-cost operators in Colombia and Peru.

Better Flight Comparison for Regional and Budget Travelers

One of the starkest conclusions from limited flight comparison tools is that budget travellers in emerging markets have routinely paid over the odds. Without a way to compare prices across multiple airlines in one search, passengers book directly, often paying a significant premium.

And that’s exactly what the expanded FareArena platform addresses. The new-and-improved flight comparison engine now supports 38 more currencies and 22 new interface languages, allowing travellers to search, compare and book in their own currency and native language without conversion friction or hidden exchange rate mark-ups.

The platform’s popular flexible date grid, a favourite of frequent flyers, now extends to all the new regions, enabling travellers to find the cheapest travel windows across a 30-day period in one search. That combined with FareArena’s price alert system that notifies users when fares drop on saved routes, the expanded coverage offers travellers in every corner of the world the same level of insight previously only available to those in major Western markets.

A Platform Built for the Way People Actually Travel Today

International travel has become more diverse. Travellers no longer travel just the traditional hub-to-hub routes that legacy booking platforms were built around. People are flying to secondary cities and booking multi-leg journeys through regional hubs and combining major airline segments with local carriers to get to places that no single airline flies to end-to-end.

That’s the kind of traveller FareArena is targeting with its global expansion. With real comparison of flights to over 200 countries, the platform removes one of the last remaining major obstacles between travellers and the cheapest fare available – no matter where in the world they are flying from. “Transparent, competitive pricing shouldn’t be dependent on your geography,” said FareArena’s Chief Growth Officer. “With this expansion, we’re making sure it doesn’t.”
