Events API for Airline Revenue Management

Events API for Airline Revenue Management

Multiple data streams in just one API

If you’re in the business of airline revenue management, you’ll understand how important it is to be able to predict when supply and demand fluctuates depending on when major events occur. But it’s not always easy predicting when these events might happen, and it’s even harder to use countless sources of information to keep up-to-date on major festivals, global holidays, even terror events.

PredictHQ simplifies event forecasting down to just a few clicks. We collate and aggregate local, national and international scheduled and unscheduled events into one handy place, so you can forecast what events are happening and when, and can plan accordingly. Make more seats available at higher pricing levels when you know more people will be traveling, or offer reduced sale flights when demand is at a low. Integrate our event data within your own products using our API.

Ranked Events

Not sure what events matter most? Don’t worry - we’ve sorted them for you

There’s a knack to understanding how events can impact flight bookings and demand - even routes - and PredictHQ has got it. Ensure derrieres remain on seats all year round, regardless of what events are occurring, thanks to our API that gives you access to millions of scheduled and unscheduled global events across 19 categories - and counting. Find relevant events with a simple REST call, so you can display them in your own airline revenue management applications. Our smart ranking algorithm, built right here at PredictHQ, assigns a numerical rank to every single event we store, so you can filter from major to minor events and see at a glance which ones you should pay special attention to. Want to use our data for more? You can also carry out data modeling and analysis or enrich your own dataset to produce derivative works.

Use PredictHQ’s insider knowledge to make the most of and predict increased or decreased demand based on events happening near your location or further afield. Use plenty of advance warning to create fail-proof marketing campaigns in relation to scheduled events like concerts, sporting fixtures, school holidays and public holidays, and react immediately to unscheduled events like severe weather or terror events that affect flights and travel plans.

Making Flat Event Data Intelligent

PredictHQ gives you and your revenue managers the power to make the most of increased demand (or fill empty seats during downturns). Our ability to source scheduled and unscheduled events in a programmatic way enables airline technology businesses to know when demand might spike, and therefore plan accordingly. We pull multiple high quality data streams and third party APIs into one smart single source so all the event information that could impact your markets can be found in one handy place. Lookup events by searching within a geographical radius, using IATA codes or geographical place names. You can query multiple categories and locations at the same time, and get JSON responses. Integrate our data with any platform thanks to our easy-to-use API. We also have Python and JavaScript SDKs available. We use the OAuth 2.0 standard for authentication, and access tokens are required to grant application access to the tools available in the API. Your already-busy developers won’t need to waste precious time capturing, cleaning and maintaining disparate data sources because we do it for them, plus our API is versioned for easier maintenance.
