About FlightList

Simplifying flight bookings for flexible travelers

FlightList is a flight search engine that lets travelers search for cheap one-way and round-trip flights to any destination across a flexible range of dates. Unlike traditional flight search tools that require date-by-date searching, FlightList displays all available flights within a date range on a single page, making it easy to discover more affordable routes and cheaper travel dates. Founded in 2018 by Hans Desjarlais and launched as the #1 Product Hunt product of the day, FlightList serves flexible travelers, digital nomads, and remote workers planning trips worldwide.

Our Story


FlightList was born out of a personal frustration faced by its founder, Hans Desjarlais, in September 2017. While traveling in the Netherlands, Hans struggled to find an efficient way to search for flights to Ukraine within a flexible date range. Existing platforms like Skyscanner and Google Flights required tedious date-by-date searches, which didn’t suit his flexible travel style. This sparked an idea: a platform that simplifies searching for flights, both one-way and round-trip, across a range of dates.

In early 2018, Hans dedicated 30 days to learning JavaScript and building a minimalist flight booking site. Using Kiwi.com’s open Flight Search API, he created a clean, user-friendly prototype designed for travelers who value flexibility and affordability. Launched on Product Hunt on February 13, 2018, FlightList quickly gained traction, reaching the top spot for the day and earning a place among the top 10 most upvoted travel products on the platform.

Today, FlightList serves travelers seeking affordable flights with a simple and minimal interface. It’s designed to make travel planning easier for those who need flexibility in their one-way or round-trip bookings.
