## Pricing

from $0.35 / 1,000 calendar fares

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## Ryanair Low Fare Finder: Cheapest Days, Anywhere & Alerts

**Ryanair's cheapest fares as clean data — the fare calendar of any route, and every destination you can reach under your price cap.** Two tools in one Actor: pick a route and get the cheapest price for every day months ahead, or pick your home airport and ask "where can I fly for under 20 €?".

![Ryanair fare calendars and anywhere deals, with real prices](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/EuroScrape/apify-actors/main/assets/demo-ryanair-low-fares.gif)

- 📅 **Fare calendars**: the cheapest fare for each day of the month, up to 6 months ahead, one way or round trip.
- 🌍 **Anywhere mode**: every destination Ryanair serves from your airport, cheapest first, with a price cap ("under 20 €").
- 🔔 **Deal alerts**: schedule it daily and get a Telegram, Discord, Slack or webhook ping when a fare drops or a new deal appears under your threshold.
- 🧾 **Honest data**: straight from Ryanair's own fare-finder API, including the fare's last-refresh time and Ryanair's own "previous price" when shown.

### ✨ Why this Actor

| | |
|---|---|
| 📅 **One run, whole calendars** | A month of a route is ~30 fares for about $0.015 — track ten routes daily for pennies. |
| 🗺️ **Airport names understood** | `"BVA"`, `"Paris Beauvais"` or `"Berlin"` — resolved against Ryanair's official list of 224 active airports. |
| 🔁 **Round trips done right** | Ryanair prices are per leg; `roundTrip` loads the return calendar too, flagged `inbound`. |
| 📊 **Free summaries** | Per route: cheapest day, median, cheapest day of each month. Per airport: top 10 deals and the cheapest fare per country. |
| 📣 **Deal-hunting alerts** | `alertMaxPrice` pings you the moment any fare at or below your threshold appears. |

### 🎯 Use cases

- **Deal hunters**: "any fare under 20 € from Beauvais in the next month" — checked every morning, pinged on Telegram.
- **Flexible travellers**: the cheapest day to fly a route across several months, before picking dates.
- **Travel media & newsletters**: weekly "deals from your city" sections, generated from data.
- **Analysts**: Ryanair price levels by route, month and country.

### 🚀 Examples

**The cheapest day to fly Berlin → Alicante over two months:**

```json
{
  "routes": ["BER-ALC"],
  "months": 2
}
```

**Where can I fly from Beauvais for under 30 €?**

```json
{
  "airports": ["Paris Beauvais"],
  "maxPrice": 30,
  "dateFrom": "2026-10-10",
  "dateTo": "2026-11-10"
}
```

**Daily deal alert — anything under 20 € from Berlin, pinged on Telegram:**

```json
{
  "airports": ["BER"],
  "maxPrice": 20,
  "monitorName": "ber-deals",
  "alertMaxPrice": 20,
  "telegramBotToken": "123456:ABC…",
  "telegramChatId": "123456789"
}
```

### 💰 Pricing

| Event | Price |
|---|---|
| Run start | $0.003 |
| Calendar fare (one day of a route) | $0.0005 |
| Destination deal | $0.001 |
| Summaries | free |

A two-month calendar for one route ≈ $0.03. A daily "anywhere under 20 €" check on one airport ≈ $0.01–0.05 per run. Apify subscribers pay less: −10% (Starter), −20% (Scale), −30% (Business). Set a **maximum cost per run** in the run options and the Actor stops cleanly when it's reached.

### ❓ FAQ

**Are these final prices?** They are Ryanair's base fares, as shown on Ryanair's own low-fare pages — before seats, bags and other extras you may add at booking.

**Why is a route missing?** Ryanair doesn't serve it (the Actor tells you), or no fares are published yet for that month. Fares typically open several months ahead.

**One way or return?** Ryanair prices every leg separately. Calendars are one-way by default; `roundTrip: true` adds the return calendar (`direction: "inbound"`).

**How fresh are the prices?** Each fare carries `priceUpdatedAt`, Ryanair's own refresh timestamp — usually minutes old.

**Is it affiliated with Ryanair?** No. The Actor reads the same public fare-finder API that powers Ryanair's "Explore" pages, at a polite rate.

### 🔌 API, AI agents and integrations

- **API**: one call runs the Actor and returns the results, `POST https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/euroscrape~ryanair-low-fares/run-sync-get-dataset-items` (see the API tab for Python, JavaScript and cURL).
- **AI agents (MCP)**: add `https://mcp.apify.com?tools=euroscrape/ryanair-low-fares` to Claude, Cursor, VS Code or any MCP client, and the Actor becomes a tool your agent can call.
- **No-code automation**: start runs and pass the results on with Apify's integrations for n8n, Make and Zapier, or with a webhook when a run ends.
- **Exports**: every result set downloads as JSON, CSV, Excel or XML, and can be sent to Google Sheets.
