## Pricing

$25.00/month + usage

To use this Actor, you pay a monthly rental fee to the developer. The rent is subtracted from your prepaid usage every month after the free trial period.You also pay for the Apify platform usage, which gets cheaper the higher Apify subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).

# README

## Actor - Ryanair Scraper

### Ryanair scraper

Since Ryanair doesn't provide a good API, this actor should help you to retrieve data from it.

The Ryanair data scraper supports the following features:

- Scrape round trip - you can scrape a complete round trip with departure and return dates.
- Scrape one-way trip - you can scrape a one way trip by just providing the departure date
- Scrape with multiple people options - You can scrape Ryanair with Adults, Teens, Children, and Infants options

### Bugs, fixes, updates, and changelog

This scraper is under active development. If you have any feature requests you can create an issue from [here](https://github.com/epctex-support/ryanair-scraper/issues).

### Input Parameters

The input of this scraper should be JSON-containing. Possible fields are:

- `mode`: (Required) (String) Mode for the actor. It can be either `ROUND` for Round trip or `ONEWAY` for One-way trips.

- `origin`: (Required) (String) 3-letter destination airport code. Ex: VIE.

- `destination`: (Required) (String) Mode for the actor. It can be either `ROUND` for Round trip or `ONEWAY` for One-way trips.

- `departureDate`: (Required) (String) Date for departure. Should be in the format of `YYYY-MM-DD`. Ex: 2021-02-21.

- `returnDate`: (Optional) (String) Date for return. It is required for Round trips. Should be in the format of `YYYY-MM-DD`. Ex: 2021-02-21.

- `adults`: (Required) (Number) Number of adults that will be included on the flight. The minimum number is 1.

- `teens`: (Optional) (Number) Number of teens (12-15 years old) that will be included on the flight.

- `children`: (Optional) (Number) Number of children (2-11 years old) that will be included on the flight.

- `infants`: (Optional) (Number) Number of teens (Under 2 years old) that will be included on the flight.

- `maxItems`: (Optional) (Number) You can limit scraped items. This should be useful when you search through the big lists or search results.

- `proxy`: (Required) (Proxy Object) Proxy configuration.

This solution requires the use of **Proxy servers**, either your own proxy servers or you can use <a href="https://www.apify.com/docs/proxy">Apify Proxy</a>.

#### Compute Unit Consumption

The actor is optimized to run in a very fast manner and scrape the flights in the most performant way. Therefore, it forefronts all flight result requests. If the actor doesn't block very often it'll scrape 10 flights in 3 seconds with ~0.005-0.01 compute units.

#### Ryanair Scraper Input example

```json
{
    "type": "ROUND",
    "origin": "VIE",
    "destination": "BCN",
    "departureTime": "2021-11-02",
    "returnTime": "2021-11-09",
    "adults": 4,
    "children": 3,
    "infants": 2,
    "teens": 1,
    "requestExtension": {
        "timeoutSecs": 100
    }
}
```

### During the Run

During the run, the actor will output messages letting you know what is going on.
When items are loaded from the page, you should see a message about this event with a loaded item count.

If you provide incorrect input to the actor, it will immediately stop with a failure state and output an explanation of what is wrong.

### Ryanair Export

During the run, the actor stores results into a dataset. Each item is a separate item in the dataset.

You can manage the results in any language (Python, PHP, Node JS/NPM). See the FAQ or <a href="https://www.apify.com/docs/api" target="blank">our API reference</a> to learn more about getting results from this Ryanair actor.

const run = await client.actor("epctex/ryanair-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
