3) RapidAPI has several different API’s that are useful. There are about 18 api on here for flight information.
- Some of the interesting ones I found out was IATA and ICAO codes which gives rich content depending on airline codes.
- IATACodes is another API which gives Global Aviation Data.
- Flight info of API allows users to quickly look up flight information and get both future flight schedules and flight status data.
