Google Home is learning a new trick today.
Google has announced that Google Home can now track flight prices for you. Simply ask something like “How much are flights to New York City in three weeks?” and Google Home will keep an eye on the price for you. Google will then offer to send you email price updates on the cheapest flights for those dates.

Tracking the prices of flights isn’t a totally new feature for Google, as Google Flights has offered price tracking for some time. Still, this is a new trick for Google Home, and it can be more convenient to just shout something at your Google Home rather than opening up your computer, navigating to Google Flights, and then entering your info to track prices.
Do you have a Google Home? If so, how often do you use it?
