CHEAPER FLIGHTS
Are you tired of paying too much for airfare? Google is rolling out new search features to help users save money when booking flights.

If the price falls below the amount you paid, Google said it will pay back the difference via Google Pay. In addition, Google updated its search features to help find the best deals on hotels and activities.
