LIVE · ARC-ACCREDITED DISTRIBUTION

Award seat availability,
straight from the source.

A clean JSON API for live business, first, and economy award space — pulled direct from global airline inventory, not scraped from airline websites. Built for LLM agents, travel tools, and backend integrations.

WHY DIRECT-SOURCE

Scrapers break. Inventory feeds don't.

Resilient by design

Airline website redesigns and anti-bot defenses don't touch us. We query airline inventory directly, so your integration doesn't break every time a carrier ships a new front end.

Clean, normalized data

Responses are plain facts: carrier, flight, route, times, cabin, and seat count — already mapped to human cabin names. No fare-code decoding, no parsing required on your end.

Premium space others miss

Surfaces long-haul business and first award space — including alliance and partner segments — that consumer airline sites and scraper tools frequently don't show.

Honest about limits: award space is volatile and released in real time, so availability changes minute to minute. A small set of carriers block their award space from open distribution entirely (e.g. Singapore Suites, Emirates First) — we don't pretend to see what isn't there.
