Ryanair Scraper

Since Ryanair doesn't provide an good API, this actor should help you to retrieve data from it.

The Ryanair data scraper supports the following features:

• Scrape round trip - you can scrape a complete round trip with departure and return dates.
• Scrape one way trip - you can scrape an one way trip with just providing the departure date
• Scrape with multiple people options - You can scrape Ryanair with Adults, Teens, Children and Infants options

Compute Unit Consumption

The actor optimized to run in a very fast manner and scrape the flights in the most performant way. Therefore, it forefronts all flight result requests. If actor doesn't block very often it'll scrape 10 flights in 3 seconds with ~0.005-0.01 compute units.

During the Run

During the run, the actor will output messages letting you know what is going on. When items are loaded from the page, you should see a message about this event with a loaded item count.

If you provide incorrect input to the actor, it will immediately stop with failure state and output an explanation of what is wrong.

Ryanair Export

During the run, the actor stores results into a dataset. Each item is a separate item in the dataset.

You can manage the results in any languague (Python, PHP, Node JS/NPM). See the FAQ or our API reference to learn more about getting results from this Ryanair actor.
