After extensive user-research and interviews, FareCompare found a strong need and opportunity to provide not only great fares for travelers to fly to events, but also personalized information and recommendations from travelers like them. Eventurist offers a curated collection of great events, practical information, and constructive advice that will help travelers find amazing experiences and deals that they would have never stumbled on otherwise.
In addition to events, the app also has a deals section displaying current deals to interesting destinations. The fare deals are individualized by the user's home city, and are detected according to FareCompare's proprietary tools that scour more than 6.13 billion flight itineraries daily. Each deal is labeled according to historical and recent comparisons of available fares.
