Airlines List API: IATA Codes as JSON
An airlines list API resolves an IATA code to the carrier record you need before you call schedules or routes — name, ICAO, callsign, country, fleet size. On FlightLabs that is GET https://api.goflightlabs.com/airlines with access_key. Filter with codeIataAirline, codeIso2Country, or search.
Starter is $24.99/mo (4,000 calls, 10 req/10s) with a 7-day trial or 50 requests. Soft Limit is on by default. This is not /flights-schedules and not /routes. Docs: goflightlabs.com/documentation (Retrieve Airlines).
Request: American Airlines (AA)
curl "https://api.goflightlabs.com/airlines?access_key=YOUR_ACCESS_KEY&codeIataAirline=AA"
Country filter: codeIso2Country=US. Name search in docs: search=Air Dolomiti.
