Prices are cached fares in AUD from I Want That Flight (I Know The Pilot's sister flight-search site) - refreshed regularly and indicative, not live availability. Always present the travel dates alongside prices. Use this for 'cheapest flights to Bali next month' queries; use get_cheapest_flight_dates when the origin is known.
