Knowing which site to turn to for last minute travel is a tricky feat. Existing sites are constantly changing their functionality and new sites are being born all the time – how can we know which site will best serve us? Sifting through the plethora of travel sites is a total pain on a good day, not to mention when you’re booking airfare in a hurry!

We’ve compiled a list of our top three sites for booking last-minute airfare to help you begin your Renaissance getaway as stress-free as possible!

1) Hipmunk.com scours the internet for your requested itinerary and delivers the information in a simple and logical format. In addition to sorting by the usual price, duration, and departure and arrival options, you can filter your options by “agony,” a combination of price, duration, and number of stops. We love the simplicity and thoroughness of Hipmunk.com.

2) Kayak.com compares hundreds of travel sites at once, cutting out the extra step of checking several sites for the best fare. The more flexible you are with your schedule and destination, the better your chances are of finding a great deal. If your goal is just to get away, being flexible with your destination can be a fun and exciting way to spend a holiday in a location where you otherwise might not have landed.

3) Travelzoo.com presents a weekly list of top 20 airfare deals. This is another great opportunity to let spontaneity reign and head off on an uncharted vacation. Act quickly, as these deals usually go fast.

With over 150 locations worldwide, there’s a good chance that there will be a Renaissance waiting for you when you land.
