## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
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.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## 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.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Booking.com Airport Taxis Scraper - Live Transfer Quotes

**Get live airport taxi and transfer quotes between any two points in one run - prices, vehicle class, supplier, capacity, duration, meet-and-greet and cancellation terms.** Set a pickup and a dropoff, pick your currency, and export clean, structured rows. No login, no subscription, pay only per rate.

---

### What this actor does

Give it a pickup and a dropoff and it returns every available transfer rate, with everything you need to compare options and prices:

- 💰 **Live price** - the quoted fare in any of 28 currencies, plus pre-discount price when there is a deal
- 🚗 **Vehicle** - example car model, class (Standard, Executive, Luxury, Minibus...), passenger and bag capacity
- 🏢 **Supplier** - transfer company name, category, and supplier id
- ⏱ **Trip** - estimated duration and driving distance
- 🤝 **Service** - meet-and-greet flag, free-cancellation window, 24h / 2h / non-refundable terms (in the `data` payload)
- 🔗 **Book** - a direct Booking.com link to complete each reservation

Pickup and dropoff are both **adaptive** - pass an IATA code (`LHR`), a Google Place ID (`ChIJ...`), a full taxis.booking.com URL, or just plain text (`Heathrow Airport`). The actor resolves each to the right place automatically.

### Input

| Field | What it does |
|---|---|
| **Pickup** | Where the trip starts. IATA code, Google Place ID, taxis.booking.com URL, or plain text. Required. |
| **Dropoff** | Where the trip ends. Same adaptive formats. Required. |
| **Pickup / Dropoff type** | Location type (airport, hotel, train station...). Auto-detected from your input; override if needed. |
| **Pickup date & time** | `YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS`. Leave blank to default to tomorrow at noon. |
| **Passengers** | 1-16. Affects which vehicle classes are quoted. |
| **Currency** | 28 Booking.com-supported ISO codes. |
| **Filters** | Max price, vehicle type, supplier id - post-filters to narrow the rows you keep. |

### Output

One flat row per transfer rate, discriminated by `row_type`, with the full payload under `data`. The dataset ships with **two ready-made table tabs** - **Overview** and **Rates** - so the data reads as a clean spreadsheet you can sort, filter and export to CSV/Excel/JSON in one click.

Common columns: `pickup`, `dropoff`, `vehicle_type`, `car_model`, `supplier_name`, `price`, `currency`, `original_price`, `max_passengers`, `bags`, `duration_minutes`, `driving_distance_km`, `meet_and_greet`, `cancellation_minutes`, `booking_link`, `image_url`, `supplier_id`. The `data` payload adds `supplier_category`, `car_description`, `price_discount_percentage`, and the full cancellation terms. Rows are returned sorted by price (cheapest first), and error rows carry an `error_code` and are **free** - you only pay for real rates.

A run-summary record (`OUTPUT` key) reports rate counts and the estimated cost. Live per-event pricing is shown on this actor's Apify Store page.

> Tip: leave the date blank for a fast same-route price check, or set a real **pickup date & time** to capture the exact quote a traveller would see for that slot.

### Why this actor

- **Live quotes, real time** - prices straight from Booking.com Transfers, not stale cached numbers.
- **Adaptive pickup / dropoff** - IATA code, Place ID, URL, or plain text. No place-id hunting.
- **Every detail to compare** - price, class, capacity, duration, supplier, cancellation terms, in clean columns.
- **28 currencies** - quote any route in the currency your audience uses.
- **Clean tabs** - an export-ready Rates table sorted cheapest-first, not a wall of mixed columns.
- **You only pay for results** - empty routes, errors and your own misconfigurations are never charged.

Location type of the pickup. Auto-detected when you pass text or an IATA code; override it here if needed.
## `dropoffType` (type: `string`):

Location type of the dropoff. Auto-detected when you pass text or an IATA code; override it here if needed.
## `pickupDateTime` (type: `string`):

Optional pickup date and time in `YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS` format (e.g. `2026-07-15T14:30:00`). Leave blank to default to tomorrow at noon.
## `passengers` (type: `integer`):
