General

SideStep is a travel search engine, not an online travel agency. With SideStep, you get the best bargains from dozens of different sources – all in one place. Key benefits include:

• Search dozens of sites at once for travel savings
  SideStep offers a rich selection of flight, hotel, and rental car discounts. The traveler’s search engine, SideStep searches the sites of the travel providers themselves – sites like HolidayInn.com and JetBlue.com – for their best options. SideStep also checks online agencies like Orbitz and consolidators like Hotels.com for their most compelling offers. Why hop from site to site hunting for bargains? With SideStep, the scavenger hunt for travel values is over
• Automatically compare prices side-by-side with sites like Expedia and Travelocity With SideStep, you can easily comparison shop vs. other popular online travel sites. You'll see SideStep’s choices right alongside those from the Expedia, Travelocity, and other major sites. This way, you’ll be confident you’ve found the flight, hotel or rental car choice that’s best for you.
• Discover deals from travel providers that other sites miss – like JetBlue SideStep features bargains from travel providers you won’t find via the online agencies, companies like JetBlue and Independence Air. The discount airlines, regional rental car companies and independent hotels offer substantial savings. With SideStep, you won’t miss a thing.
