How this service works
Flight search can be paid with x402 or sponsored by the BRIJ gateway. For direct x402 clients, send a valid `PAYMENT-SIGNATURE` header. Without payment, the API returns `402 Payment Required` carrying the **current** price. For BRIJ Wallet preview calls, the gateway may send `X-BRIJ-SPONSORED-*` headers. Providers should treat that as a BRIJ-sponsored preview, not as a user-paid x402 settlement. Every price in the response is the price a buyer pays: total_amount / total_amount_decimal (offers, fare_options, highlights) are all-in, and max_price filters on that figure. POST /air/intents asks exactly this amount as expected_escrow_amount (a wallet enrolled in a fee-waiving cohort is asked less, never more). Base x402 price is 0.10 USDC. The price is multiplied (up to 50×) by the current search load: completed searches in the last 60 seconds and any upstream rate-limit response in the last 5 minutes. Always read the latest `PAYMENT-REQUIRED` challenge before signing - the price your client saw a moment ago may already be stale. The same flight commonly appears several times at different prices: each offer is one fare (fare_brand_name, baggage, change/refund conditions) sold by one seller (owner_name). Two offers on the same flight can share identical conditions and differ only in seller and price — compare the fare fields, never assume cheaper means more restrictive. **Data boundaries — what this response does and does not contain.** Each offer carries EVERYTHING the flight inventory provider discloses at search time: itinerary (legs, times with IANA timezones, durations, aircraft, terminals, technical stops), identity (comparison_key, both carriers on codeshares, flight numbers, fare_basis_code), fare content (brand, cabin, included baggage, change/refund conditions with penalties), price breakdown (base + tax), CO2 estimate, and loyalty programmes. To drill into ONE offer — fresh price/expiry and paid-ancillary prices — use POST /air/offer-details. Filters (max_stops, departure_after/before, max_price) apply before sort, grouping and limit — so limit + sort=duration + max_stops=0 means "the fastest directs". Offers default to cheapest first; a full response can exceed 300 KB, so LLM-driven agents should send cheapest_per_itinerary=true with a limit and drill into finalists. Not available in SEARCH results (use POST /air/offer-details per offer): - Prices of paid ancillaries (extra checked bags and other extras). - Seat maps and specific seat availability. - Full legal fare-rule text. It does not exist upstream in machine form: the structured conditions object IS the complete machine-readable ruleset. For airline-side research, fare_basis_code plus the marketing carrier identifies the exact fare. Everywhere in this response, null/empty means the airline did not disclose the value — unknown, never zero or false. **Anti-pattern — truncation without grouping.** cheapest_per_itinerary=false combined with a small limit returns the N cheapest fare INSTANCES, not the N cheapest itineraries. Basic/Lite fares are always cheaper than Comfort/Flex/refundable/business variants of the SAME flight, so the pricier variants sort to the tail and fall off — and their absence from a truncated response proves nothing. To answer "is there a refundable / with-bag / higher-cabin fare?", always use cheapest_per_itinerary=true and read fare_options; it is lossless on price, brand, refund/change conditions and checked bags. **Progressive results.** The response may carry `status: enriching` plus a `search_id`: slower, cheaper fulfiller tiers are still quoting. Poll the free POST /air/search-updates with that `search_id` (every ~`poll_after_ms`) to receive their offers as they land, until `status: complete`. If you skip polling you simply act on the fast tiers' offers — nothing else changes.
Output
Returns a search object containing a request_id and an array of flight offers. Each offer includes the offer ID, airline name (owner_name), origin and destination IATA codes, departure and arrival datetimes, total fare in both atomic integer and decimal string formats, currency code, offer expiry, price guarantee expiry, payment deadline, passenger IDs, and a flag indicating whether instant payment is required.
Example use cases
Compare weekend flight options and pricing
“What one-way flights can I book from New York (JFK) to Los Angeles (LAX) this Saturday? Show me what's available with departure times and total fares.”
Search international airfare on a budget
“I need to fly from Paris (CDG) to London (LHR) on July 15th for just myself. Can you find me the cheapest one-way options available that day?”
Plan group travel with multiple passengers
“We're looking for flights from Chicago (ORD) to Miami (MIA) on August 3rd for 4 passengers. What airlines and prices do you have available?”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://travel.brij.fi/air/search?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need to search one-way flight availability and pricing between two IATA-coded airports on a specific date, and your client supports x402 micropayment headers or BRIJ-sponsored preview calls. Prefer this over generic travel APIs when you need real-time fare offers with price guarantees and atomic pricing data suitable for programmatic booking flows.
Side effects
- 402 Payment Required — no valid PAYMENT-SIGNATURE header provided; response includes current price challenge (may be higher than cached price due to load multiplier up to 50×)
- 400 Bad Request — missing required fields (origin_iata, destination_iata, or depart_date), or IATA codes not exactly 3 characters
- No offers returned — no flights available for the requested route/date combination
- Stale price signature — price has changed due to load since client last fetched 402 challenge; must re-fetch current price before signing
- Upstream rate limit — search load surcharge applies for next 5 minutes after upstream provider rate-limits
Input
Schema · Request body
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| sort | string | Ordering, ascending only. Default price. duration = fastest first, departure = earliest local departure first, emissions = lowest CO2 first (unknown values sort last). nonstop_first = every nonstop itinerary (price-ascending) before any connection — with a limit, directs survive the cut. |
| limit | integer | Optional. Cap the number of offers returned; 0 or absent returns every match. Offers are sorted per `sort` (cheapest first by default), so a limit keeps the best ones under that order. ONE EXCEPTION, and it is why the array can hold limit+1 rows: when the cut would have dropped the cheapest NONSTOP, that offer is appended as the last row, so a page never hides that a direct exists even from a caller that reads no other field. It is appended, never inserted at its price rank — the first `limit` rows are still the `limit` best under your sort, and offers[0] is still the cheapest. `highlights` names it too. |
| adults | integer | Adult passengers, 1 to 9 (the airline maximum per booking). The offer is priced for this many travellers, and /air/book must later supply exactly this many passengers. |
| max_price | string | Decimal cap on total_amount in the offer currency, e.g. "250.00". |
| max_stops | integer | Maximum plane changes PER DIRECTION: 0 keeps directs only (a round trip qualifies only if both legs are direct). Absent = any. Technical stops without a plane change do not count. |
| cabin_class | string | Optional, defaults to economy. |
| depart_daterequired | string | |
| origin_iatarequired | string | |
| return_date | string | Optional. Adds the inbound slice (destination back to origin on this date). Round-trip offers cover both directions and are booked in ONE /air/book — the escrow amount is the round-trip total. |
| departure_after | string | Outbound departs at or after this time, LOCAL to the departure airport, HH:MM. |
| departure_before | string | Outbound departs at or before this time, local HH:MM. Combine with departure_after for a window: afternoon = after 12:00, before 18:00. |
| destination_iatarequired | string | |
| cheapest_per_itinerary | boolean | Optional. Return only the cheapest fare of each physical itinerary (comparison_key); the folded fares stay visible in each offer's fare_options (offer_id, brand, price, refundable, changeable, checked bags), so refundability questions are answerable from the grouped data itself. Recommended for LLM-driven agents together with limit. |
