## 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.

# README

## Award Flights Scraper — Flightpoints + Roame (Miles & Points)

Scrape **award flight availability** — flights you can book with airline miles and credit-card points — from **Flightpoints and Roame** in a single actor. Give any route and date and get the **miles, taxes, available seats, cabins, stops, loyalty program and operating airline** for every itinerary, from both sources, in one clean schema.

![How it works](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/muhamed-didovic/muhamed-didovic.github.io/main/assets/how-it-works-awardflights.png)

### Why use this scraper

- **Two sources, one schema.** Flightpoints + Roame normalised into identical rows — more coverage than any single-source award scraper, no glue code on your side.
- **Per-cabin detail.** Economy, premium, business and first — each with its own miles, taxes, seat count and stops.
- **25+ loyalty programs.** Aeroplan, Flying Blue, AAdvantage, Alaska, Avios, LifeMiles, Smiles and more — across Star Alliance, oneworld and SkyTeam.
- **One route or bulk.** Search a single origin/destination/date, or pass a list of routes in one run.
- **Pure HTTP, pay per result.** Fast, no headless browser, and you only pay for the itineraries you actually get.

### Overview

The Award Flights Scraper queries the live award-search engines behind Flightpoints and Roame, polls each until the search completes, and returns one normalised row per award itinerary. Built for points-and-miles tools, availability monitors and travel-hacking dashboards. Export as JSON, CSV or Excel.

### Supported inputs

| Input | Example |
|---|---|
| **Single route** | `origin: JFK`, `destination: LHR`, `departureDate: 2026-07-15` |
| **Bulk routes** | `routes: [{ "origin":"JFK","destination":"LHR","departureDate":"2026-07-15" }, …]` |
| **Sources** | `["flightpoints","roame"]` (default both) |
| **Cabin** | `searchClass: ECON \| PREM \| BUS \| FIRST` |
| **Filters** | `daysAround` (± date window), `directOnly` |

Dates must be within ~60 days forward (the award engines' limit).

### Use cases

- **Points & miles tools** — power an award-search feature with multi-source availability.
- **Availability monitoring** — track when award seats open on a route/cabin across programs.
- **Sweet-spot research** — find the cheapest miles + lowest taxes for a route across 25+ programs.
- **Alerts & dashboards** — feed scheduled runs into price/availability alerts.
- **Comparison** — see where Flightpoints and Roame agree or differ on the same route.

### How it works

1. **You provide** a route (or bulk routes) + date, plus which sources and cabin.
2. **The actor starts a search** on each source (`/search/key/` for Flightpoints, a GraphQL mutation for Roame) and **polls** until it completes.
3. **Each result is normalised** into the unified award-itinerary schema.
4. **Rows stream to the dataset** — one per itinerary, ready to export.

### Input configuration

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `origin` / `destination` | string | Airport IATA codes (single-route mode). |
| `departureDate` | string | `YYYY-MM-DD`, within ~60 days. |
| `routes` | array | Bulk list of `{origin,destination,departureDate}`; overrides single route. |
| `sources` | array | `flightpoints` and/or `roame`. Default both. |
| `searchClass` | string | `ECON` / `PREM` / `BUS` / `FIRST` (Roame). |
| `daysAround` | integer | Widen by ± N days. |
| `directOnly` | boolean | Flightpoints: non-stop only. |
| `maxItems` | integer | Cap on itineraries. |

### Output sample

```json
{
  "source": "flightpoints",
  "origin": "JFK",
  "destination": "LHR",
  "departureDate": "2026-07-15",
  "program": "AA",
  "programName": "AAdvantage",
  "airline": "American Airlines",
  "alliance": "oneworld",
  "durationMinutes": null,
  "cabins": {
    "economy":  { "miles": 30000, "taxes": 5.6,  "seats": 1, "stops": 0 },
    "business": { "miles": 57500, "taxes": 19.7, "seats": 1, "stops": 0 },
    "first":    { "miles": 85000, "taxes": 1548.9, "seats": 1, "stops": 0 }
  },
  "lastSeen": "2026-06-24T08:33:15+00:00",
  "scrapedAt": "2026-06-24T09:33:55.810Z"
}
```

Roame rows are per-fare (one cabin each) with the same shape, plus a `roameScore`.

### Key output fields

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `source` | `flightpoints` or `roame` |
| `origin` / `destination` / `departureDate` | The searched route + date |
| `program` / `programName` | Loyalty program (issuer code + name) |
| `airline` / `alliance` | Operating airline(s) + alliance |
| `cabins{economy\|premium\|business\|first}` | Per-cabin `miles`, `taxes`, `seats`, `stops`, `airlines` |
| `durationMinutes` | Trip duration (Roame) |
| `roameScore` | Roame's value score (Roame only) |
| `lastSeen` / `scrapedAt` | Source freshness + scrape time |

### FAQ

**Which sources?** Flightpoints and Roame — both free, public award-search engines — in one actor with one schema.

**Do I need a paid account?** No. Both sources are queried anonymously.

**How fresh is availability?** Live — each run starts a real search and polls until complete. Award seats change fast, so a row reflects availability at scrape time.

**Why are some cabins missing?** A cabin only appears when award space exists for it on that itinerary.

**How far out can I search?** ~60 days forward, the limit of the underlying engines.

**Can I scrape many routes at once?** Yes — pass a `routes` array; each route is searched on each selected source.

### Support

### ⚠️ Disclaimer

This actor queries **publicly available** award-search results and does not access any account behind a login. Award availability changes constantly and a scraped row does not guarantee bookability. You are responsible for using the data in compliance with each source's terms and applicable laws. Use responsibly and lawfully.
