Fare Response

Fares are visible within the OffersGroup section. Within this section you will find AirlineOffers per carrier catalogue. A fare will be shown as an offer and will include the total fare charge as well as the fare per passenger type (e.g. Adult, Child etc ). Within each offer we also provide a deep link to the airlines' booking portal.

An offer contains both fare charges and flight segment information. Each offer contains a reference to the applicable flights for that offer. Within ApplicableFlights the FlightSegmentReference element holds the reference and links to the SegmentKey within DataLists\FlightSegmentList.

Please be aware, that the currency of the offer is determined by your origin airport/city and the respective country e.g.: Origin HND - Tokyo - will result in a YEN based response offer. 

The structure of the response is shown below:
