Show HN: Flybnb.io – Flights and Airbnbs in one smart search Hi HN! I’m excited to share flybnb.io, a side project I built out of personal frustration while traveling full-time with my wife. We often searched for flights and Airbnb stays separately, only to realize that one was way out of budget after planning the other. I wanted a way to combine both searches and instantly see the total trip cost, so I built it myself. What flybnb.io can do: - Gets flights from SkyScanner and Airbnb prices in one go with total costs for each condition (ex: fast flight + cheap stay) - Smart Filters: Set minimum review counts and scores for stays to filter out unreliable listings that skew pricing. - Auto-categorize Airbnb listings into three price tiers (Economy, Standard, and Premium) for easy research/planning. - Generates links to directly search/book exact itinerary or listing on SkyScanner and Airbnb. (Note that sometimes SkyScanner results might differ in price from what is shown, working on a fix to have more accurate prices). Using this tool ourselves we were able to actual visit new destinations that had a pricier flight, but was much cheaper overall due to great value and low cost Airbnbs. In the past we would search cheap flights first, then find accommodation resulting in a pretty high total cost. But for long stays and vacations, accommodation quickly becomes the largest cost. For tech stack, I'm still new/beginner so using React with Material-UI, Supabase, and API's for the results. I’d love feedback from the community—especially on features you’d find helpful or ideas to improve discovery. This is a bootstrapped solo build, so I’m learning a lot as I go. Ask me anything! https://flybnb.io December 20, 2024 at 10:54AM
