It feels like it was only yesterday that we were praising [Google](http://www.engadget.com/tag/google/) for giving us access to a plethora of handy, everyday tools -- oh wait, _it was_ [yesterday](http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/28/google-contacts-carddav-protocol-support/). At any rate, today the folks from Mountain View are [back with more](http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/27/googles-niantic-labs-launches-field-trip-app-for-android-helps/) travel-friendly software for you to enjoy, announcing that its useful Flight Search service is now fully-optimized for use with, as Google points out, tablets such as its own [Nexus 7](http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/28/nexus-7-review/) and, naturally, Cupertino's [iPad](http://www.engadget.com/2012/03/16/apple-ipad-review-2012/). Jet-setters can see the changes now by simply hitting the Flights link below, and with the dearest holidays just around the corner, now is probably a good time to make use of that "lowest fare" tool.
