About Kayak
Kayak is a travel metasearch engine that aggregates data for flights, hotel stays, and car rentals from various providers. Travelers use the site to compare prices, set up price alerts, and manage itineraries through the Trips feature. Outages typically result in search results failing to populate, broken redirects to booking partners, or errors when accessing user accounts. Rimetry analyzes the site's uptime from several global regions to determine if the search infrastructure is responding correctly for all users.
Kayak (kayak.com) is a travel service monitored continuously by rimetry from multiple global regions. We probe its public endpoints every 60 seconds to detect outages, latency spikes, and regional degradations the moment they happen.
Right now Kayak is reporting as operational across our probes, with an average response time of 1213 ms and 100.00% uptime over the last 24 hours. Most users connecting to kayak.com are seeing it work normally.
Common causes of disruption for services like Kayak include backend API failures, region-specific routing problems at the CDN or ISP layer, expired TLS certificates, DNS misconfigurations, and capacity spikes during major events. rimetry combines automated probes, vendor status feeds, and verified community reports to give you a single high-confidence answer instead of guessing.
