Redirects Module - Partner Portal
From 17 August 2026, Skyscanner introduced updates to the reporting methodology used to process and report traveller activity across our Travel Insights data.
As a result, you may notice a reduction in the number of Redirects reported in Partner Portal compared with previous periods. This reflects a change in reporting methodology and should not be interpreted as an equivalent reduction in overall traveller activity or demand on Skyscanner.
