FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions

If you haven't found what you're looking for, try our API Documentation or Contact us.

How does Duffel compare to United Airlines's API

The United Airlines API offers similar functionality to Duffel, but will only allow you to access content from United Airlines.

If you want to access content from other airlines, you would need to integrate with each individual airline's API, a process that is costly and time-consuming.

With Duffel, you get access to a network of 300+ of the world's leading airlines with just a single integration.

Duffel was also built with the developer in mind and offers simple, composable APIs, comprehensive documentation, and a robust testing environment. This means an integration takes minutes, not months. Check out our API Documentation here.

What is Managed Content?

If you aren't a travel agent you may not have IATA or ARC accreditation. This is required in order to access content from airlines but it's costly and time-consuming. Duffel offers Managed Content where you can use our accreditation globally (fees apply).

If you have your own accreditation and would like to use it please contact us to discuss pricing and next steps.

Can I request a new feature or a new airline?

Of course! To request a new feature or airline, contact us. We'd love to hear from you.
