The site claims its charts are "very cool" I agree. Thanks for posting the links. Every little bit helps in today's unfriendly skies.

When I tried it, I found that the airfare chart (like many other so-called "discount" sites), does not include fuel surcharges and other fees that can double the fare (not including sea or baggage fees). A ticket to London on one airline is listed at ~300 OW, but with fees, surcharges and taxes, its really more like ~530, meaning a RT is ~$1060. I far prefer sites that disclose the real price of tickets.

I usually use kayak.com, and they always list the full fare cost, including fees and taxes. I would immediately stop using a site that only listed the base fare when searching.

Kayak is my favorite too. And the link to the airline luggage charges didn't differentiate between domestic and international. I know American isn't charging fees for international flights (for the first two checked bags and one carryon).
