Tripdelta finds the cheapest fares using a complicated algorithm

Finding a bargain on a flight has never been easier thanks to the internet, and a new travel website claims it can help holidaymakers to save hundreds of pounds on airfare. Scroll down for video Travellers who take advantage of the website's deals will catch a connecting flight at a 'hidden' airport Tripdelta was the brainchild of a team of developers who created the algorithm, which finds the cheapest possible fares by combining flights from multiple airlines that don’t have codeshare agreements. Travel searches conducted by MailOnline reveal that passengers can find savings on many one-way flights, but return flights may not be worth the hassle or travellers may be better off booking directly with one airline or a competing website, depending on the destination. Tripdelta's lowest price on a return flight between London and Orlando is £380, with two stops each way Rival website Kayak.co.uk offers a faster overall travel time, including one direct flight, at just £36 more Through Expedia, passengers can fly on the same dates for £435, with no connections and shorter journeys But it would be much cheaper than a nine-and-a-half hour direct flight departing on the same day, with the cheapest available option at £1,075. However, those booking a return flight can find a better option and faster travel times with rival website Kayak.co.uk, at £416.
