It’s good to have options – in travel and in life. And in our quest to ensure you have all the information you need to make travel decisions you can feel confident about, we’ve teamed up with Wanderu, the leading ground travel search platform in North America and Europe, to show you even more options for short-distance routes right when you search.

Because sometimes, the best way to get from point A to point B doesn’t involve a flight at all. Sometimes, taking the train or hopping on a bus for half the price of a plane ticket is worth the extra 90 minutes – not to mention skipping security lines. Now, when you search flights on KAYAK, you’ll have the ability to explore bus or train options from Wanderu when they’re available on your route.

With Wanderu comes more than 500 alternative travel options on KAYAK (and the first time ever that we’re featuring bus routes), so that you can easily compare various modes of transportation to design a trip that best fits your needs.

“Travelers don’t have an easy way to compare the full range of transportation options available to them, especially on shorter distance routes,” said Anthony Salomone, KAYAK Product Manager. “Through our integration with Wanderu, we’re making it easier for travelers to find and compare all options in one search, so you can find the best deals and design a trip that best fits your needs.”

And, this is just the beginning. As travelers veer away from hotspots that are easy to fly in to and start seeking out cities without viable airport options, it’ll be important to combine multiple modes of transportation to get to your final destination. And, when that time comes, we’ll have you covered.
