AIRLINES DON'T WANT YOU TO KNOW THIS.

Grok found me a $1,200 flight for $340.

Here are the 6 prompts that expose hidden airline pricing tricks:
2
1. Flight Price Analysis

Prompt: "I need to fly from [departure city] to [destination city] between [date range]. Analyze the typical pricing patterns for this route. What are the cheapest days to fly, best times to book, and any seasonal price variations I should know about?"
3
2. Alternative Airport Strategy

Prompt: "For my trip from [city A] to [city B], what are ALL nearby alternative airports within 100 miles of each location? Calculate potential savings if I use these alternatives, including ground transportation costs. Show me the total cost comparison."
4
3. Hidden City Ticketing

Prompt: "Explain hidden city ticketing for my route from [departure] to [destination]. Find flights where [destination] is a layover city on a longer route that costs less. What are the risks, rules, and how much could I save? Give me specific flight examples."
5
4. Mistake Fares & Error Pricing

Prompt: "Create a search strategy to find mistake fares and pricing errors for flights to [destination] or [region]. What websites, tools, and alert systems should I monitor? What patterns indicate a mistake fare vs. a normal sale?"
6
5. Airline Points Arbitrage

Prompt: "I'm looking at a $[price] flight from [origin] to [destination]. Analyze if it's cheaper to: 1) Buy points/miles and book with them, 2) Use a credit card signup bonus, 3) Transfer points from another program, or 4) Book a positioning flight to a cheaper hub. Show me the math for each option."
7
6. Dynamic Pricing Hack

Prompt: "Explain how airline dynamic pricing works and how to beat it. Should I clear cookies, use VPN, search in incognito mode, or use a different device? What's the optimal search strategy to avoid price increases? Also, tell me the best time of day and day of week to book flights to [destination]."
8
BONUS: 7. Complete Booking Strategy

Prompt: "I need to book a flight from [origin] to [destination] departing around [date] and returning around [date]. My budget is $[amount]. Combine all strategies: alternative airports, optimal booking time, hidden city ticketing, points programs, and mistake fares. Give me a step-by-step action plan to find the absolute cheapest option."
