we get good results using Google Flights (Google Travel) and haven't noticed any carry-over from earlier searches but clearing your cookies should certainly do the trick (I'd recommend cCleaner for a more thorough clean, but every browser has its own "quick" cookie delete method

I tried TOR & Duck Duck Go, but Air NZ and Qantas won't let me in, just give me an Error page. I will try private window on Firefox & Safari on the Mac.

Yes. Less comprehensive results. Try Firefox focus with google as search choice

Incognito mode on some browsers.

You can browse incognito with an iPhone. There's a button to turn it on. I have an iPhone 12.

You mentioned you have a Mac. Have you tried the Private Relay setting. It might help. The following is a description of Private Relay from my MacBook
iCloud Private Relay keeps your internet activity private. It hides your IP address and browsing activity in Safari and protects your unencrypted internet traffic so that no one — including Apple — can see both who you are and what sites you’re visiting. If you want to try it. Settings > click on "Apple ID" icon > check box for "Private Relay (Beta)". If you don't see the box, you'll need to upgrade to the latest OS for Monterey; however, if your Mac is too old, you won't see the option because you won't be able to upgrade to Monterey. I was able to turn this feature on my my newer MacBook, but not for my older iMac. Private Relay is also available for iPhone/iPad. Go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Private Relay. Hope this helps. Charlie Last edited by OronocoCharlie; 02-10-2022 at 07:23 AM. |

That is not how it works. They do not have the time nor the programming for that as it's extremely costly, which would negate the rise in price from being of any benefit. If they did that for everyone looking at airfares, they would need millions of Petabytes of storage which has a cost in the billion range to do it right for this type of application. Totally a silly thing you've been told, and obviously from someone that knows nothing about computer systems. If you want a better rate you need to look on Tuesday or Wednesday. Those are the best days to get the best rates.

Unless this is an impromptu flight that has to be made regardless, I suggest planning in advance. My experience is that the days of the week you travel make a difference (Tues and Thurs and usually cheaper), the airline makes a difference as well as when you search the bookings. I find searching (not flying) weekend mornings is generally better and have found that prices can change daily or even more often. Keep searching using one of the engines these helpful folks have suggested and good luck.
