Eyeing an EV? This may make it easier.
For the past few days, I have been busy looking to book tickets for my family and I to go to California around the Christmas holidays. It’s a little complicated because my wife and I are flying out first — with the kids a week later — and then we are all returning together. (By the way, boss, did I tell you about this?)
A tool I find particularly helpful in researching the possibilities — and navigating the typically high holiday season fares — is Google GOOGL 0.00%↑ Flights, which offers all sorts of rankings and other gizmos. I don’t usually book there because of various frequent-flyer bonuses, such as upgrades available on airline websites, but it’s very good in pointing me in the right direction.
The flight tool, which includes information about emissions, is now being followed by a comparison site for electric vehicles and other tools to measure sustainability.
