## Pricing

Pay per usage

This Actor is paid per platform usage. The Actor is free to use, and you only pay for the Apify platform usage, which gets cheaper the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

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

# README

## Cheapest Flight Fares: Ryanair One-Way & Round-Trip Prices

Live cheapest fares from **Ryanair**, Europe's largest low-cost airline, straight from its public fare-finder API. Explore where you can fly cheapest from any airport, price a specific route one-way or round-trip, or pull a whole month's price calendar.

- **Keyless.** No account, no API key, no browser.
- **Three modes** for the three questions travelers actually ask.
- **Booking link** on every row so a good fare is one click from checkout.

### Modes

**oneWay** — cheapest one-way fares from an origin across a date window. Leave `destinations` empty to **explore everywhere** ("where can I fly cheapest from Dublin in August?"), or list specific arrival codes to price those routes.

**roundTrip** — cheapest return fares with an inbound window and a trip-length filter (`tripDurationFrom`/`tripDurationTo`). Price is the round-trip total.

**cheapestPerDay** — a **price calendar** for one route and month: the cheapest available fare on each day, so you can see which day is cheapest to fly.

### Input

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `mode` | `oneWay` (default), `roundTrip`, or `cheapestPerDay`. |
| `origin` | Departure airport IATA, e.g. `DUB`, `STN`, `BER`. Required. |
| `destinations` | Arrival IATA codes. Empty = explore all (oneWay/roundTrip). `cheapestPerDay` needs exactly one. |
| `departFrom` / `departTo` | Outbound date window (`YYYY-MM-DD`). Defaults today → +30 days. |
| `returnFrom` / `returnTo` | Inbound window for round-trip. |
| `tripDurationFrom` / `tripDurationTo` | Stay length in days (round-trip). |
| `month` | Month to price for the calendar, e.g. `2026-08`. |
| `currency` | ISO code, e.g. `EUR`, `GBP`, `PLN`. |
| `maxPrice` | Only fares at or below this price. `0` = no cap. |
| `maxRows` | Cap on rows returned. |

### Output

One flat row per fare (or per day in calendar mode): `origin`, `destination` (+ names and countries), `departureDate`, `arrivalDate`, `flightNumber`, `price` (round-trip mode adds `outboundPrice`, `inboundPrice`, `totalPrice`, `tripDurationDays` and inbound leg fields), `currency`, `newRoute`, and `bookingUrl`.

### Pricing

Pay per event: **$0.008 per fare row** pushed. The first 2 rows of every run are free, and runs with no results (or a bad origin) emit a single free note row. Nothing else is charged.

### Notes & limits

- Covers **Ryanair only** — Europe's largest low-cost carrier, but a single airline. It is not a multi-airline meta-search.
- Prices are live snapshots and change constantly; always confirm on the booking link before purchase.
- Fares exclude add-ons (bags, seats, priority). The number shown is the base fare Ryanair advertises.

## `origin` (type: `string`):

3-letter departure airport code, e.g. DUB (Dublin), STN (London Stansted), BER (Berlin).

## `destinations` (type: `array`):

One or more 3-letter arrival codes, e.g. STN, BCN. Leave empty in oneWay/roundTrip to explore all destinations. cheapestPerDay needs exactly one.

## `departFrom` (type: `string`):

Earliest outbound date. Defaults to today.

## `departTo` (type: `string`):

Latest outbound date. Defaults to 30 days out.
