Flight Information eBL is used to retrieve flight details and services from the Apollo and Galileo CRSs. The level of flight details retrieved depends on the carrier, but these details may include flight times (scheduled or real), arrival gate information, and in-flight services being offered. Additionally, details such as journey time, equipment (aircraft) type, meals, and starting and ending airport terminal, as well as information about Code Share, e-ticket, and traffic restriction, can be included.
Flight Information eBL accepts a list of flights and returns all relevant details for each flight. It uses XML to send requests to the Global Distribution System (GDS) and return results to the user. The response contains the flights in the same order as requested, as well as services, and if any failed, errors are embedded inline under the flight in the response. Flight Information eBL doesn't support all airlines and has the ability to block any airline, at any time, for any request.
Flight Information eBL uses a schema to define the request and a schema to define the response. You can download all XSDs for Galileo Web Services at once.
Note: Flight Information only supports uppercase request values. For example, the airline code and city pair listed in the request must be in uppercase (e.g., BA, LHR, JFK).
