I’ve noticed that almost every single airline website feels extremely clunky, simply searching for a single flight route can take a minute to load. However, Google Flights only takes a few seconds and searches across all airlines.
In theory, shouldn’t it take longer for Google to process the information if they need to pull data from so many different airlines?

1. Google will cache the data for it, but this means it may be out of date.
2. The airline’s websites often have a built in delay so you can’t browse it at full speed. This is partially to help with excessive website traffic, but also to make it harder to compare many flights at the same time.
