I used the new 'consultant' model last week and loved it. I really liked that the consultant could help me get what I wanted, not what I asked for ("I'm cold, put me in South America." "Buenos Aires is expensive. How do you feel about La Paz or Lima?").
I hope they standardize on it. The rest of the site seems to reflect the old models. For just one consultant, why do I need 27 different pricing options for 'kinds of flights'? I don't know what I want. Just charge me one price and be done with it. And the ratings system needs a field akin to 'money saved vs kayak' in addition to the 1-10 scale, because I'm no longer sure I got the lowest price as opposed to a consultation.
But I loved it all the same and will be back. Flightfox is doing a great job.
