Google Flights Scraper — Flight Prices, Schedules & Stops

Google Flights Scraper gets flight prices and schedules from Google Flights for any origin, destination and date, without an API key. Each result includes the price, airlines, flight numbers, departure and arrival times, total duration, number of stops, layover airports and waiting times, aircraft, legroom and CO2 emissions vs. typical, plus whether Google ranks it among the best flights. Search one-way or round trip, in economy, premium economy, business or first, for up to 9 adults plus children and infants, with nonstop and airline filters and prices in any currency. Use relative dates like +30 so scheduled runs always search ahead.

What you get

• Many routes at once: every origin x destination x date combination (up to 200 searches per run).
• Airport or city codes (JFK, NYC, LON), exact dates or relative dates (+7, +30).
• One-way or round trip (round-trip total price for each outbound option).
• Cabin class, adults, children, infants, max stops (nonstop, 1, 2) and preferred airlines.
• Full itinerary: every leg with flight number, aircraft and legroom; layovers with waiting time and airport changes.
• CO2 emissions per flight and vs. the typical flight on the route; prices in 40+ currencies.

How to use Google Flights Scraper

2. Enter Departure dates (2026-12-15 or +30 for 30 days from today) and optionally a Return date.
3. Set cabin class, passengers, max stops, airlines and currency.
4. Run and export to JSON, CSV or Excel, or schedule daily runs to track fares and send them to Google Sheets, Slack or an AI agent.

FAQ

Do I need a Google account or API key?

No. The Actor reads the public Google Flights results page.

Are prices the same as on Google Flights?

Yes, they are the prices Google Flights shows a US visitor for the chosen currency at run time. Prices change often; schedule runs to track them.

How do round trips work?

With a Return date, Google prices round trips: each result is an outbound flight with the cheapest round-trip total. Return-flight details need a second selection on Google and are not included.

How many flights per search?

Google's results page lists the best flights plus other options, usually 10-100 per route and date. maxFlightsPerSearch caps the number.

Which times zone are the times in?

Departure and arrival times are local times at each airport, as on Google Flights.

Can I search flexible dates?

Add several departure dates (e.g. +28, +29, +30, +31) and compare the cheapest per date.

Is it legal to scrape this data?

The Actor collects publicly available information only and does not log in or bypass access controls. Use the data in line with the website's terms and the laws that apply to you, especially when processing personal data.
