Which flight aggregators provide a straightforward booking experience without upsells?
General travel booking question for this very travel savvy group. Are there any aggregators that are still with using? I've used Momondo for years and at this point they are basically just a search engine. They then send you to every other company involved to pay and get badgered into paying for whatever they want to upsell. I just want to give my flight data get a list of choices and buy a thing... Does that not exist anymore?
Answer summary

The original poster expresses frustration with current services, seeking alternatives that provide straightforward options without upselling. Comments highlight several platforms as useful, notably Skyscanner and Google Flights, with additional mentions of trip.com and Agoda.

FFS there are hundreds? Well I guess it was smart to ask a group of people who travel which ones they've had success with so I don't need to waste my time for weeks right? You ask if I've heard of Google- have you heard of f$&k off you useless tw@t? It's what you do when you only have inane and unproductive things to comment. I hope you see this in the next minute because then I will block you and make my little corner of the world better. Have fun in Pattaya jackass.

Depends on country and route in my experience. I find Agoda good value. But Ita for finding routes/prices during a 30 day window

I use businessclass.com

I use Skyscanner to find flights then after making my choice, go direct to the airline site; except Etihad whose customer service department refuses to engage with disgruntled customers.

Google Flights is what you're looking for

I regularly have problems where Google flights can't find the same flights I get through other sources.John **********
@Jack ***************
Google Flights only does flights direct from airlines, that's the beauty of it for meJohn **********
@Jack ***************
possibly. It does only show flights from "partners" so not all flightsJack ****************
OP@John *********
hmmm are there some airlines that only sell through resellers? That would explain why sometimes flights are missing when I use it
Robin *******
I use both of the above

i would recommend google flights. Use google chrome in incognito mode as browser (to avoid cookie tracking).
