## 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-nearby-a6611501
```

Example prompt: What airports are within 100 miles of coordinates 40.7128° N, 74.0060° W? I only want commercial airports if possible.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to discover airports near a geographic point defined by coordinates, especially when building travel itineraries, suggesting flight options for a given location, or enriching location data with nearby aviation infrastructure. Prefer this over a text-based airport search when you have precise lat/lng coordinates. The only_iap flag is useful when you want to filter to instrument-approach-procedure airports only.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required latitude or longitude returns a 400 validation error
- Invalid coordinate values (out of range) may return empty results or an error
- No airports found within the specified radius returns an empty airports array
- Pagination cursor mismatch returns an error or unexpected results
- Network timeout or upstream FlightAware outage returns a 503 or 5xx error

## How this service works

Find airports near a given latitude/longitude coordinate

## Output

Returns a paginated list of airports near the given coordinates, each with airport code, name, city, state, country, distance from the query point, compass heading, IATA/ICAO/LID codes, timezone, elevation, coordinates, and a URL for flight data. Also includes alternative airport names and a link to the next page of results.
