Real-time airport arrival flights via FlightAware AeroAPI, pay-per-request at $0.01 per call.
What it does
This endpoint returns arrival flight data for a specific airport, sourced from FlightAware's AeroAPI via the StableTravel proxy. Supply an ICAO or IATA airport code as the path parameter `:id` (e.g., KJFK or JFK) and receive a paginated list of arriving flights with details including flight ident, origin airport, scheduled/estimated/actual times, aircraft type, delays, gate, terminal, baggage claim, and flight status. Optional query parameters let you filter by airline and paginate with `max_pages` and `cursor`.
The endpoint is part of StableTravel's broader pay-per-request travel API suite covering flights, hotels, activities, transfers, and real-time flight tracking. It costs $0.01 per request, paid automatically via the MPP (Tempo on chain 4217) or x402 protocol using USDC — no API keys, OAuth, or subscriptions required. The response schema includes an `arrivals` array of flight objects and pagination links.
Data returned per arrival includes: `fa_flight_id`, `ident` (IATA/ICAO), operator info, origin/destination airport details (code, name, city, timezone), scheduled/estimated/actual gate and runway times, departure and arrival delays, aircraft type, route distance, baggage claim, gates, and terminals. This makes it suitable for building arrival boards, delay monitoring dashboards, or agent-driven travel coordination workflows.
Capabilities
Use cases
- —Build a real-time airport arrival board for a specific airport
- —Monitor incoming flight delays and cancellations at an airport
- —Agent-driven travel coordination: check if a connecting flight has arrived
- —Filter arrivals by airline to track a carrier's inbound operations
- —Feed arrival data into disruption alerting or passenger notification systems
Fit
Best for
- —AI agents that need real-time airport arrival data without API key management
- —Applications building live arrival displays or delay dashboards
- —Travel coordination workflows that check arrival status before booking ground transport
Not for
- —Booking or purchasing flights (use the Amadeus flight endpoints instead)
- —Historical arrival data (use the /history/airports/{id}/flights/arrivals endpoint)
- —Price comparison or fare shopping

Quality
Full OpenAPI 3.1 schema with detailed response types, clear pricing ($0.01/call), live 402 MPP challenge captured, comprehensive documentation with parameter descriptions and pagination support. Example response is synthesized from the schema since no live data sample was captured.
Warnings
- —Example response is synthesized from the OpenAPI schema, not captured from a live call.
- —The path parameter :id is documented in the OpenAPI as a generic path segment; ensure you replace it with an actual ICAO or IATA airport code.
