I am trying to book a flight for our family to get s flight to Eastern Europe. Everytime I do a search on Skyscanner, the price goes up. This happes even if I do a number of searches within a few hours of each other.

What is going on? It feels like they are trying to get more money out of me as they know I am serious about booking due to multiple searches.

Don't use the same computer to check each time and clear your cache!!

Basically they know when you're checking out the same flights repeatedly so they up the costs accordingly.

Once you have an idea which carrier/route you want, go directly to that website. Their prices are usually fairly stable, at least for a day or two, on each route (e.g. like WizzAir). They do fluctuate, but not hourly.
