Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability flightaware-airport-arrivals-ba73f88f
```

Example prompt: What flights are currently arriving at JFK? Show me the latest arrivals — filter by Delta if you can.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need real-time or recent arrival flight data for JFK specifically (KJFK hardcoded), including flight status, origin, and timing. Choose this over generic flight search APIs when you need airport-level arrival boards rather than route-level searches. Prefer this over departure endpoints when monitoring inbound traffic or coordinating pickups.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unknown airport code returns an error or empty results
- Airline filter string that doesn't match known operators may return empty array
- Pagination cursor mismatch returns an error or restarts from beginning
- Rate limit exceeded if many pages requested in rapid succession
- Service unavailability from upstream FlightAware API returns 5xx error

## How this service works

Get arrival flights for a specific airport

## Output

Returns a paginated array of arrival flight objects, each containing the flight identifier, origin airport details (city, IATA/ICAO codes, timezone), route, operator, flight status, actual gate-in and wheels-on times, and flags for diverted or blocked flights. Also includes a pagination link for fetching additional pages of results.
