This JSON REST API provides future airline schedule data so you can display available flights of an airline on your website, based on future dates your users select. Let’s break it down!

Prepare Your Development Method
Before starting to integrate the Future Airline Schedules API, set up your local development environment and decide the server-side language you will use for the integration. As this is a JSON REST API, you will be able to use any language you are comfortable with, such as JavaScript, Python, PHP, Ruby, Swift and lots of others.
Get Your Future Airline Schedules API Credentials to Access
First things first, get your API key. The access to Aviyair's Future Airline Schedule API is possible by creating an API subscription below and receiving your API key to your email address immediately.
Don't let the word "subscription" scare you because there aren't any commitments or hidden fees. Plus the first month comes at trial rates for testing, starting at $9 only. You can cancel your subscription anytime before it renews monthly and even after this, you'll still have access to the full date until your current month ends.
Pricing - Aviyair
Aviyair offers three main subscriptions plans for flight schedules data, airport timetables and airline routes information.

Output Example and Descriptions

User Interface Friendly Reminder
Now that you've successfully fetched data, this is your friendly reminder to integrate the Future Airline Timetables API into a good UI environment.

Tip: One profitable feature that we see in our clients is to feature other travel-related service ads surrounding the flight selection feature on your website. For example, car rental or hotel booking banners that lead to your partners in these services can enhance the personalized experience for your users + prove a more profitable outcome.
