A Secret Flying alternative, if you fly from India
Secret Flying publishes a fast-moving public feed of flight deals and error fares from all over the world. It is a genuinely useful site - but it is built for everyone, everywhere. If you fly out of India, most of what scrolls past will not be for you. Here is how that model compares with what Fareletter is building. Facts about Secret Flying are from their own website as of October 2026.
What Secret Flying offers
- A public, frequently updated feed of cheap flights and error fares departing cities worldwide
- Daily deal volume across many regions, with some deals (like business class) reserved for Premium members
- Direct links to book - Secret Flying is not a booking platform
- No curation by your home country: you filter the firehose yourself
Where the feed model falls short for India
A global feed is only as useful as its coverage of your departure city. India departures appear on Secret Flying, but they are a small slice of a worldwide stream mixed between departures from Europe, the US and elsewhere. Catching the India deals means checking the feed regularly, and the cheapest headline fares often involve awkward routings you still have to vet yourself.
What Fareletter does instead
Fareletter is the opposite of a firehose: one short weekly email covering only international round trips from Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Kolkata and Chennai. Every fare is re-checked at the actual booking page - dates, total price, baggage and stops - before it is included, and each listing shows when it was last checked. No feed to monitor, no fares from airports you will never use, no dead deals left up without a note.
The honest part
Secret Flying is free to browse and genuinely surfaces remarkable error fares; if you enjoy hunting a global feed, keep it in your bookmarks. Fareletter is in early preview - the sample fares on our homepage are labelled illustrative examples, and the first real issue goes out only after every fare in it has been verified at the booking page. The trade is simple: Secret Flying gives you volume today; Fareletter aims to give you a small, checked, India-only shortlist every week.
