Am I the only one that's finding Skyscanner not showing all available flights at the moment.when you check the individual airlines the flights are clearly there?

We were searching for flights to Australia recently.
Both skyscanner and momondo came up with Qatar as the cheapest.
John continued searching across the web and found Singapore airline flights at £200 cheaper. Each.
Singapore airlines didn't come up on skyscanner or momondo at all.
So it might pay to search beyond as they clearly dont show all options.

Skyscanner now owned by some Chinese mob, no longer has the same ethos methinks...

I guess they're only recommending the airlines that'll pay them the biggest commission.

Sky scanner is rubbish now since the Chinese bought it. Used to always be live flight prices, not now
