Welcome to Kinkaa!
Filed in archive Entrepreneurship on November 1, 2006
As you might have seen we have started a new company called Kinkaa. While Kinkaa shares the same founders as Creative Weblogging - it's a separate company and has (slightly) different investors.
Kinkaa is a meta travel search engine that helps travelers find wonderful deals for travel products.
We currently launch Kinkaa in the US and Germany.
Here is how it works:
Kinkaa.com searches meta search engines such as Kayak, Sidestep, Mobissimo, Farechase and expedia to get the best deal overview for you as a traveler. No need to manually compare all the sites. Once you have chosen one it forwards you to the search engine or if technically possible to the travel provider.
Kinkaa.de works a little different - it searches currently 50+ travel sites like airlines, travel consolidators, hotels, car rental agencies and packages trips (this is after all still a big portion of travel in Germany).
Kinkaa also offers some nice filtering options for your search like searches in airline names or a sorting of hotel stars for your money (i.e. how many stars one dollar buys you).
Kinkaa also keeps you up to date - so if you have $400 for the flight to Hawai in mind - you can subscribe to fare alert and we'll send you an email whenever we find flights from your airport to the specified airport in Hawaii. So you need to remember, come back and waste time.
Of course its all free and Kinkaa does not take any commissions. So we have no incentive to sell you sponsored deals. Kinkaa makes (or better will make) money from unobtrusive advertising.
Here is an excerpt of the press release that we are sending out today tomorrow:
