## Description

Flight API for searching offers and creating bookings. Access to airline content and ticketing uses managed content or the customer's own accreditation.

## AI-native score

**Tier C — 36/100 · research coverage 46/100.** This grade measures agent-readiness and is not a substitute for your own security or vendor-risk review. See [methodology](/methodology/) for how the grade and coverage are computed. Unresearched decision fields score zero in the grade.

## Confirmed absences

These decision fields were researched and confirmed absent — not available based on current evidence, until contrary information supersedes the finding. Each carries the check performed, the page checked, and the date, so you can act on the negative without repeating the research. A label-scoped absence applies only to its label (e.g. no SOC 2 does not mean no certifications).

- **A2A servers** — confirmed absent (whole field), checked 2026-10-14.

## Security & Compliance

We confirm that cited vendor pages support these certification claims; we do not independently audit the reports. A shared trust or security page can support several certifications. We do not require separate public report links because reports may require login, vendor approval, or a nondisclosure agreement. Ask the vendor for reports and applicable coverage before a procurement decision. These listings expose no per-claim check date; the entry's updated date does not date the supporting evidence.

- **Compliance certifications:** Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard
- **Access controls:** Role-Based Access Control

## Capabilities

- **Flight search** — Find and compare flight itineraries and fares by route, dates and travel preferences.

## Jobs To Be Done

From cited vendor documentation, each completion verdict says whether an agent can deliver the job's main outcome by and large through this product and which steps still need a person. Scope may limit cases or prerequisites while preserving that outcome. An unknown verdict means the answer is not yet established.

- **Compare flight options** — Find and compare flight itineraries and fares before choosing an offer and preparing a booking.
  - Route: API
  - Completion: Documented complete
  - Setup needs a human: Unknown
  - Per-task human step: None
  - On behalf of a principal: Unknown
  - Scope: For a Duffel account holder comparing flight options through the documented HTTP API. With an access token, submit itinerary slices and passengers with ages for under-18s or type adult. The guide illustrates this search as offerRequests.create. Its offers array supplies priced itineraries with slices and flight segments. Retrieve a selected offer again, illustrated as offers.get, to refresh total_currency and total_amount. The getting-started examples use a test token. This assessment covers finding and comparing offers; purchasing a ticket and passenger check-in fall outside this job.
  - Conditions: The guide permits scripting this comparison flow after account and access-token setup, and its examples use a test token. Live access requires account verification and activation. Duffel prohibits metasearch use except where the agreement or applicable law permits it. Supplier rules and search-to-order usage limits apply. The reviewed guide and Services Agreement do not establish human-only setup or software-agent delegated authority; those assessments remain unknown.
