I love the look and the ease of selecting a destination idea.

When it shows out-of-country options like "Grand Cayman" it routes your flights from your location to "FL" (closest airport to Cayman) and then seems to drop the ball there. The results for skyscanner shows cayman, but I don't see the flight anywhere. It's not a clear UI.

Small thing, you must type the airport identifier in caps ("LAX" vs "lax") if you want it to find it.

I like it a lot!

Does the duration include travel time? I'm in London and it suggests flying to India and Peru for a 3 day weekend trip. I'd be nice to see how much time you'd actually have at the destination, given a certain amount of days off, especially for short trips.

Ah that's a good one! For now we don't take it into account since it its also depending on your deprature times (morning / evening) but it would be a nice additional feature!
