How Flight Combinator finds cheap direct flights

Most flight sites quietly mix in connecting itineraries or lock you into one airline for the round trip. Flight Combinator does neither: it searches only nonstop flights and treats the outbound and the return as independent one-way tickets, so you can fly out with one airline and back with another — whichever combination is cheapest. For Milan to Cairo that means scanning every airport pairing on both sides, every day in your date range, and sorting the results purely by total price.
