Air ✈️

The Air workflow allows you to do what most travel agents did in the past and what many search engines still do today: book a trip for a customer. Air service provides:

Air Shop: Search for flight options by lowest fare (LowFareSearch(Asynch)Req) or availability (AirAvailability).
Air Price: Price the selected flights and request additional information about rules, flight details, and seating.
Air Book: Book the flights when you are satisfied with the times, price, and rules.

Low Fare Shop functionality combines air availability and a fare quote request to return the lowest available fares for a specified itinerary, using origin/destination and date information. Fares are available for one-way, round-trip, and multi-city travel. Low Fare Shop does not require a booked itinerary to return fare data.

Returns: Promise See: Low Fare Shopping Model

Segment object

Each search response has Directions array which represents different variations of the same trip (with same price), but with the different flight options. Each index of Directions array represents leg index. For example if you have IEV-PAR-IEV roundtrip search request it will have IEV-PAR, PAR-IEV legs. And Directions array will have length 2. Under Directions[0] and Directions[1] will be different options for the flight. So under Directions[0][1] you will find Segments array. This segments are used for booking. Please specify transfer field to mark connection segment.
