Rate Limits
Free tier: 100 requests/month across all RapidAPI APIs. Use sparingly. Prefer SerpAPI for flights and LiteAPI/SerpAPI for hotels as primary sources.
When to Use
- Google Flights Live: Secondary price check when SerpAPI results seem off, or for routes SerpAPI doesn't cover well.
- Booking.com Live: When you want Booking.com specific pricing/availability (different inventory than Google Hotels).
Do not:
- Use as primary search (SerpAPI and Seats.aero are primary).
- Burn through free tier on broad searches. Be targeted.
