Flight API Structure
Overview
When booking a three-leg flight journey:
- The first leg from point A to point B
- The second from point B to point C
- And a third leg from point C to point A.
This entire journey constitutes a FlightRoute, which is uniquely identified by a FlightRouteID.
Each individual flight between two locations, such as:
- From point A to point B
- Point B to point C
- And point C back to point A
Is called a FlightLeg. In this example, there are three FlightLegs.
A FlightLeg can either be a direct flight, where the plane travels from one point to another without any stops (e.g., directly from point B to point C.
Or - it can include stopovers (e.g., from point A to point B with a stopover at point M, or from point C to point A with a stopover at point K).
Stopovers
When there are stopovers, each FlightLeg is further divided into FlightLegSegments, with each segment representing a flight between two consecutive landing points.
The stopover points are also referred to as connections, as they link two FlightLegSegments.
In the API's FlightSearchResponse, you will also find a parameter called FlightRouteGroup.
Different FlightRoutes are grouped into FlightRouteGroups for internal use.
