Google Now starts monitoring flight prices that you want to see

There have been some reports of a new Google Now card that alerts users of price drops on flights that they had been searching. The trouble with the feature is that you have to search for the flight either using Google Search, or Google's dedicated Flight Search feature. We assume this would be something of an issue, because most people tend to go to sites like Expedia or Kayak, or directly to airline websites to search for flights, and searches on those sites won't feed back into Google Now. 

Of course, on the flip side of that, a feature like this could draw users to Google Flight Search, which many may not have even known about before. Google's Flight Search feature is pretty nice, though, so a bit more awareness about it might not be so bad.
