## 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 oblique-markets-award-flight-search-seats-aero-compatible-674b8f4a -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search for available business class award flights from JFK and EWR to LHR and LGW for 1 passenger between June 1 and June 15, 2025 — I want real inventory only, no phantom availability.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need Seats.aero-compatible award flight search results with a stable, predictable schema and a guarantee against fabricated inventory. Prefer it over scraping award portals directly or using airline-specific APIs when you need a unified multi-route search across cabin classes with clean JSON output. Ideal for agents that need to compare award availability across multiple origin/destination pairs and date windows in a single call.

## Known failure modes

- No award availability found for the specified route and date range — returns empty results
- Invalid airport codes return a validation error
- Unsupported cabin class enum value returns a 400 error
- Date range too wide or too narrow may return incomplete results
- Origin or destination airport arrays must contain valid IATA codes or the request is rejected
