Hopper Travel Research Scraper
Scrape Hopper travel research reports, press releases, and articles to track airline and hotel pricing trends, consumer demand shifts, and market forecasts. Every post comes with its title, publication date, category, and full body text. No API key or login. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.
Hopper publishes proprietary travel data and market analysis that airlines, hotel chains, and tourism boards use to forecast demand. Their Media Center is the public source for that research, but it has no API and no bulk export. This Actor reads the research reports, press releases, and articles sections directly, filters by date range, and returns each post in one fixed schema.

Troubleshooting
Why am I getting no results?
Check your date range. If the Earliest and Latest Post Date fields are too narrow, or set to a period with no published content, the Actor will return an empty dataset. Try widening the date range or leaving the fields blank.
The Actor is returning fewer posts than my max items setting.
The Actor stops when it has collected all available posts that match your content type and date filters. If the Media Center has fewer matching posts than your max items value, you will receive only what exists.
Some posts seem to be missing from my dataset.
Confirm that you have selected the correct content types. A press release will not appear if you only selected 'Research Reports'. Also verify your date filters do not exclude the posts you expect.
The run failed with a timeout error.
If you set a very high max items value and the site is slow to respond, the run may hit Apify's default timeout. Try reducing the max items per run or increasing the run timeout in the Actor's advanced settings.
The body text is truncated or missing for some posts.
Some older posts or press releases may have a different page structure. If the issue is consistent, contact support with a link to the specific post so the parser can be updated.
FAQ
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What exactly is Hopper's Media Center? | It is the public-facing hub where Hopper publishes its original research reports on flight and hotel pricing, consumer travel trends, press releases about company news, and travel advice articles. This Actor scrapes that content. |
| Does this Actor scrape live flight or hotel prices from Hopper? | No. This Actor scrapes the research, news, and articles published on Hopper's Media Center. For live flight prices, use a dedicated Hopper Flight Scraper. For live hotel prices, use a Hopper Hotel or Stays Scraper. |
| Can I get the full text of each report or article? | Yes. Each row in your dataset includes the complete body text of the post, along with its title, publication date, and content type. |
| How do I scrape only research reports from the last quarter? | Set the Content Types to 'Research Reports' and enter the quarter's start and end dates in the Earliest and Latest Post Date fields. |
| Is there a limit on how many posts I can scrape? | You can set the maximum posts per run up to 1,000,000. The Actor will stop once it reaches that count or runs out of matching posts. |
| Do I need a Hopper account or API key? | No. The Actor reads the publicly accessible Media Center pages. No login, API key, or registration is required. |
| What output formats are supported? | You can export your dataset in CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML from the Apify platform. |
