Google Flights
Google Flights is a snippet that acts as a flight finder embedded in the SERP. Airlines can use this feature to better understand the search intent of their users, and therefore what the users are looking for. If the users are looking for a flight to Miami, for example, the results will likely show a flight to Miami. However, When searching with pay per click, users may end up paying more for the same search result. It’s a great feature from a users point of view; However, some website owners have taken issues with it.
