# StableTravel FlightAware Airport Departures

> StableTravel FlightAware Airport Departures is a paid API for AI agents from stabletravel.dev, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-13).

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 stabletravel-flightaware-airport-departures-a38ecced
```

Example prompt: What flights are departing from JFK airport today? Show me American Airlines departures if you can filter by airline.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need real-time or scheduled departure flight data for a specific airport, especially when you want FlightAware-quality data without a subscription. Prefer this over airline-specific APIs when you need multi-airline departures from a single airport. Prefer over generic flight search endpoints when the use case is monitoring or listing outbound flights rather than booking.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unknown airport ID returns an error or empty departures array
- Missing required airport ID in the URL path returns 400 or 404
- Pagination cursor mismatch or expiry causes empty or duplicate results
- Rate limiting or payment failure returns 402 Payment Required
- Airline filter that matches no flights returns empty departures array
- FlightAware upstream outage may result in stale or unavailable data

## How this service works

Pay-per-request access to flights, award availability, hotels, activities, and transfers. No auth, no subscriptions.

## Output

A paginated JSON response containing an array of departure flights, each with flight ident, IATA/ICAO codes, origin and destination airport details (city, name, code), flight status (e.g. Scheduled, En Route, Landed), operator, aircraft type, scheduled and actual departure/arrival times, and FlightAware flight ID. Also includes pagination links and total page count.
