What the Snagfly app does

Snagfly is a wishlist-based flight deal alert service. Instead of a broadcast feed of deals to everywhere, you pin the specific destinations you actually want to fly to, and Snagfly watches only those exact routes 24/7. When a fare drops at least 50% below the verified rolling 90-day median for that route - many reach up to 90% off - you get an alert. The app adds one thing the web can't: instant push notifications, so you hear about a genuine drop the second it happens rather than the next time you check your email.

What you can do in the app

Pin destinations - build your wishlist of the places you want to go, from any departure airport.
Get push alerts - real-time notifications when a pinned route drops below its verified baseline, capped so you're never spammed.
See why it's a deal - every alert shows how far below the route's normal 90-day median the fare is, so you know it's real.
Book direct - tap through to the airline to book; Snagfly takes no commission and adds no markup.
Manage your membership - start or manage your subscription and wishlist from the app or the web.

App and web, one account

The app and the web app at app.snagfly.com share the same account. Pin a destination on your phone and it's there on the web, and vice versa - your wishlist, alerts and membership all sync. Use whichever suits the moment; the app is best for instant push alerts on the go.

Pricing

Snagfly is one simple plan: every membership starts with a free 7-day trial (cancel before it ends and you pay nothing), then $29.99/year (about $2.50 a month, billed annually). There are no in-app booking fees - you always book with the airline directly. Downloading the app is free; the membership is what powers the alerts.

How it works, start to finish

Install the app, create an account (or sign in), pin the destinations you want, and let Snagfly watch those routes. When a fare drops 50-90% below its verified baseline, you get a push alert with the dates, price and a direct airline link. That's it - no daily searching, no broadcast noise, just a nudge when a trip you actually want gets genuinely cheap.
