No reason to worry a ticket might get $100 cheaper tomorrow.

Google is testing out a price guarantee program for Google Flights that will pay you money if the price of a flight goes down after you booked it through the service. The feature is currently available as a “pilot program” in the US for specific flights,, but it could be a compelling reason to use Google’s tool the next time you’re searching for a flight.

When you’re using Google’s tool, some flights will have a little shield icon with a dollar sign. If you book that particular flight through Google Flights, the company says it’ll “monitor the price every day until departure.” If it drops, you’ll get the difference back.GIF: Google Currently, its price guarantees are only for flights that depart from the US, and you can only get them if you have a US billing address and phone number. The company also says it’s “only available for flights for which we’re confident that the price won’t drop.”explains that you can only get $500 back per calendar year and that you won’t get money back if the price difference is less than $5.

The company says you should receive the difference within 48 hours from when you took off, assuming you already have Google Pay set up.
