Google Flights Scraper: Cheapest Dates, Prices & Price History

Get flight prices from Google Flights for any route and dates, and find the cheapest day to fly. One run can check many routes over many dates, one way or round trip, and returns clean, comparable flights plus a free price calendar per route.

• ✈️ Every flight detail: price, airlines, flight numbers, departure and arrival times, duration, stops and layovers, aircraft, legroom, CO2 emissions vs. typical.
• 📅 Cheapest dates: check up to 60 departure dates per route and get the cheapest day, the most expensive one and the full calendar.
• 📈 Google's price insights: is the price low, typical or high? The typical price range and, when Google shows it, about 60 days of price history for the route.
• 🔔 Price-drop alerts: schedule it with a monitor name and get alerts on Telegram, Discord, Slack or a webhook when a fare falls.

✨ Why this Actor

📅 Price calendar built in	numberOfDates × daysBetweenDates (every day, or the same weekday each week), one way or round trips with a fixed trip length.
🗺️ Many routes in one run	Airport codes (CDG-BCN) or city codes that cover all airports (PAR-LIS, LON-NYC).
📈 Price context, not just prices	Google's typical range and price history tell you whether to book now or wait.
🌱 CO2 per flight	Estimated emissions and the difference vs. the typical flight on the route.
🚆 Train alternative	When Google suggests a train for the route, the summary shows it with its duration.
💸 Cheap calendars	cheapestOnly: true returns one flight per route and date, so a 30-day calendar costs about $0.06.

❓ FAQ

Are prices per person? No: price is the total for all passengers (round-trip total for round trips). pricePerPassenger divides it by the number of passengers.

Which codes can I use? IATA airport codes (CDG, ORY, JFK) or city codes covering all airports of a city (PAR, LON, NYC, ROM, MIL).

How is priceLevel computed? Like Google: the lowest price of the search compared with Google's typical price range for that trip.

Why is priceHistory sometimes empty? Google only shows the price history for some searches. The summary takes it from the first date that has one.

Can I book from the data? The googleFlightsUrl opens the same search on Google Flights, where the booking options are shown.

Is it affiliated with Google? No. The Actor reads the public Google Flights pages, at a moderate pace, like a visitor would.
