Amadeus for Developers API
Overview
Amadeus for Developers is an OAuth2-protected travel API offering flight search, hotel availability, airport information, and more from one of the largest global distribution systems. The self-service tier is free with usage limits and is designed for developers building travel apps. You will need to register for a client ID and secret, then exchange them for an access token before making data requests.
Beginner Tip
Always request a fresh access token using the client_credentials grant before your API calls as tokens expire after 30 minutes. Use the test environment with test credentials to avoid consuming your production quota while learning.
