Flight Search

Cockpit flight search has a lot of great options - but with being new to the site we thought you might want a proper introduction. A digital hand-shake, if you will.

Starting off with the search function, you might want to fill in your departure and arrival destination. 

Next, the date and perhaps a time slot for your travels.

To the right side of these options you'll see a big blue minus and plus sign. 

Click on these to get the following options:

• Use “+” and “-” to add or delete flight legs for one-way journeys or multi-stop circle trips.
• Use the “via” option for simple return flights rather than adding all legs.
  Open-Jaw routing can be searched by replacing the origin or destination city of the return flight.

Furthermore:

• “More search options” are available, e.g. selecting passenger types, non-stop flights, calendar search or up to 3 airlines, specific fare types and more.

In some cases you might want to search offers from alternative airports within a radius of up to 300 km. When selecting this option, the icon will appear like this:

and selected ones will be marked blue.

By using the “+” icon you can add up to 3 different airport- or city-codes.

On land, at sea and in air - Cockpit provides loads of different travel options!

If you want to see all the options available to you, then just enter „QYG“ in the origin field of the search for options that may include rail options. Alternatively, you can book rail tickets as a feeder for long haul flights later during the booking process (Zug zum Flug „ZzF“).

Also, please note that all the shown train options are merely an example. It does not apply to the current time tables.

With the flexible calendar search, you can request multiple dates - all at the same time! 

However, take notice that the radius search and multiple airport requests can't be combined with the flexible calendar search.

Do you want to combine different cabin classes? No problem!

All you have to do is select „Mix“ in the cabin class option. 

Here you can choose Economy Class requests as well as return Business Class fares, if these are cheaper than the Economy fares. 

The same option applies to Business Class searches with First Class fares as a return flight, if these are cheaper than the requested Business fares. 

You can pre-select the cabin class for the whole itinerary or per flight portion.

Here you have the possibility to exclude tariffs such as LOW or VFR from the search. However, the PUB, NEG and NET tariffs are always delivered and cannot be changed.

With this search setting you have the possibility to display only fares without cancellation fee or only re-bookable fares.

If you tick the box "Tariffs with free baggage allowance", only tariffs that include free baggage allowance will be displayed.
