Would love to be able to have this buy my the flight at an optimal purchase time. Like I say “LAX to JFK for Jan 10th to Jan 15th, between $400 and $600” and it will wait until that is seen and then buy for me. That would be a real new feature.

Calling it 'scheduled booking'. It's on the roadmap :)

You can set up alerts using Google flights that will email you when prices change

I save thousands using this feature each year

I like that feature! But now I’m wondering if Google is selling that data back to airlines.

why would you ever set a minimum price? If you're looking for a certain service level just have it look for that. Otherwise I'd be worried you'd miss out on a flight that fits all your criteria but costs $385 or something
