Pay-per-call airline route lookups via AviationStack, settled on Tempo L2.
What it does
This endpoint provides airline route lookup data through the AviationStack API, wrapped as a Micropayment Protocol (MPP) service on the Tempo L2 network. Each call is a one-shot charge (intent="charge") settled in pathUSD on chain 4217, costing $0.005 (5000 base units at 6 decimals) per request. The provider handles transaction fees (feePayer: true).
AviationStack is a well-known aviation data provider offering real-time and historical flight tracking, airport information, airline details, and schedule data. The /v1/routes path specifically serves route information — typically airline routes between airports including carrier, departure/arrival airports, and schedule metadata. However, no OpenAPI schema, documentation pages, or usage examples are available from the MPP gateway itself; all docs pages return 404.
Because no schema or parameter documentation was found on the gateway, callers will need to refer to the upstream AviationStack API documentation to understand supported query parameters (likely including dep_iata, arr_iata, airline_iata, flight_number, etc.). The endpoint is live and responding with a valid 402 MPP challenge, confirming it is operational.
Capabilities
Use cases
- —Look up airline routes between two airports for travel planning agents
- —Retrieve route metadata (carriers, frequencies) for logistics or analytics workflows
- —Power flight search features in conversational AI assistants
- —Enrich travel itinerary data with route-level details
Fit
Best for
- —AI agents needing on-demand airline route data without API key management
- —Low-volume, pay-per-call aviation data consumers
- —Developers integrating route lookups into crypto-native or agent-based applications
Not for
- —High-volume bulk route data extraction (per-call pricing adds up quickly)
- —Use cases requiring real-time flight tracking (this endpoint is routes, not live flights)
Quick start

Quality
The endpoint is live with a valid 402 MPP challenge, but no documentation, OpenAPI schema, or example responses are available from the gateway. All docs/pricing/readme pages return 404. Listing is largely inferred from the endpoint path, the AviationStack brand, and the MPP challenge parameters.
Warnings
- —No OpenAPI schema or parameter documentation found on the MPP gateway
- —All documentation pages (docs, api, pricing, README) return 404
- —Query parameters are inferred from upstream AviationStack API and not confirmed for this wrapper
- —Currency address 0x20c0...8b50 assumed to be pathUSD with 6 decimals based on Tempo L2 convention; not independently verified
