SWF Flight Board Scraper

SWF Flight Board Scraper exports the full-day departures and arrivals board from the official Stewart International Airport website. Pick a date, choose departures, arrivals, or both, and download every scheduled movement with airline, terminal, gate, and live status — no login and no API key.

Run it on the Apify platform to schedule daily board snapshots, export JSON/CSV/Excel, monitor delays, and integrate flight rows via API.

What can SWF Flight Board Scraper do?

• Full-day boards — Export every departure or arrival listed for a calendar day at Stewart (SWF).
• Live status — Capture On Time, Delayed, Cancelled, Departed, and other statuses as shown on the official board.
• Revised times — Get both scheduled and revised departure/arrival times when the airport publishes updates.
• Gate and terminal — Pull terminal and gate assignments for pickup planning and airport operations tools.
• Departures, arrivals, or both — Run one direction or scrape both boards in a single Actor run.
• Date selection — Target today or any future/past date the airport board still lists (America/New_York local date).
• Sibling airports — The same input also supports JFK, Newark (EWR), and LaGuardia (LGA) Port Authority boards.
• Disruption filter — Optionally export only Delayed or Cancelled flights.
• Codeshare deduplication — Optionally collapse duplicate codeshare rows that share the same time, route, terminal, and gate.
• No-code export — Download JSON, CSV, Excel, or HTML from the dataset tab, or call the Actor via API.
• Apify platform — Schedule hourly runs, set webhooks on delayed flights, and keep a historical archive of board snapshots.

Why scrape the Stewart airport flight board?

FAQ

How many flights does Stewart publish per day?
SWF is a smaller airport with a modest daily schedule. Set maxItems high enough to capture the full board, or schedule daily runs and store snapshots over time.

Does this scrape airline websites?
No. Data comes from the official Port Authority airport flight board — the same public board travelers see on swfny.com.

Are codeshares deduplicated?
By default, each marketing flight listed on the board is exported as its own row. Enable Deduplicate Codeshares to keep one row per scheduled movement (same time, route, terminal, and gate).

Do I need a proxy?
No. The official board is reachable with direct HTTP requests; proxy defaults to off.

Can I scrape JFK or Newark?
Yes. Set airport to JFK, EWR, or LGA to use the same Actor against other Port Authority airports.

Integrations
