This is a neat one - not so much about price but only direct flights are listed, departing from wherever you want. Nice when you want to get away, don’t have a specific plan, and don’t want to spend a day on layovers and connections.

I love playing with [KAYAK Explore](http://www.kayak.com/explore/)  
but it’s kinda like staring in the window of a store you can’t afford.
