Kiwi.com and other OTA like trip.com for airline tickets are a scam. They can change the advertised price and then charge you to cancel. One way to get back at them is flood their highly skilled job sections with fake resumes. Get chat gpt to write an amazing bs resume. When they call for an interview tell them they are unethical and you dont work for unethical companies.

I book loads of Asian budget carriers through Trip.com for work, as they work out often cheaper than booking direct after the airlines tack on credit card fees at the end. When the flights are fully non-refundable/changeable, who cares if it's booked through Trip or direct as you can't change anything anyway.
They also offer cashback, coupons and points. All of which say booking on Batik Malaysia, Greater Bay Airlines or Viettravel Airlines would not offer be by booking directly.
I've also found that for major schedule changes, Trip can handle it instantly, fully online but trying to navigate the website of say a random Chinese budget would make me call a human in Chinese or talk to someone at the airport.
