  • Flights and Routes support filters (limit, etc.). Flight schedules need IATA code and type (departure/arrival).
  • Reference: Cities, countries, taxes for filtering.
  • Search by query across types. Fetch by id (e.g. aviationstack:airline:AA).

Gotchas

  • airport_iata: Schedule endpoints need a valid IATA station code (e.g. JFK, LAX)—resolve codes from the airport reference feed when unsure.
  • Schedule type: departure or arrival for flight_schedules.
  • API key: Passed as access_key query param.
