I am playing around with the Skyscanner API from their webpage in Postman (opens in a new tab, or in the Postman desktop app) and testing the endpoint for browsing flights. This is what the API says in their page:

enter image description here

And this is what I am trying - browsing for flights from Stockholm Arlanda Airport (ARN-sky) to Heathrow (LHR-sky), on the date 22nd July (around 4 days from now) for first leg, and 25th for return, but as you can see, I am not getting any result. The URL I am trying is this.

Any idea what am I doing wrong, and how to fix it?

Please, mind that you present an image regarding an endpoint to Browse Quotes, but you are trying to consume an endpoint to Browse Routes.

Assuming that you actually want to browse routes, I believe the problem may be this:

  • The endpoint is of the form:
GET /browseroutes/v1.0/{country}/{currency}/{locale}/{originPlace}/{destinationPlace}/{outboundPartialDate}/{inboundPartialDate}
  • You are writing a URL like:
.../browseroutes/v1.0/FR/eur/en-US/us/ARN-sky/LHR-sky/2021-07-22/2021-07-25?apikey=<api-key>

So it seems that you are actually specifying:

  • originPlace = us
  • destinationPlace = ARN-sky

But I think you wanted to define:

  • originPlace = ARN-sky
  • destinationPlace = LHR-sky

To solve this, you may remove the /us member, thus writing: http://partners.api.skyscanner.net/apiservices/browseroutes/v1.0/FR/eur/en-US/ARN-sky/LHR-sky/2021-07-22/2021-07-25?apikey=api-key

  • (Please, replace the api-key value by an actual API key)
  • This URL already returns a valid 200 OK result :)
