What is the fly or drive score?
The fly or drive score is an estimate of the true cost
of travel. A lower score is better. Our score includes
factors like airline prices and fuel costs, but it also takes into
account the value of your time spent traveling. If you're taking time
off work because you have to drive an extra day, it might be better
to fly even if driving is technically cheaper. Tap on a
