One travel API for flights, hotels and fixed-departure fares
The Idea Holiday Partner API lets a travel company add hotel, flight and fixed-fare search and booking to its own website or app. You test with a test key, then move to a live key when your integration is ready.
Or call +91 96967 77391. Our team answers from 11 am to 7 pm.
What you get
Three products, one key
Search and book hotels, flights and fixed-departure fares through the same API with your own key.
Test keys, then live keys
Use a test key to try the API safely and a live key for real bookings. Test and live keys call the same host, so you build against the documented endpoints.
No double bookings
A booking request carries an idempotency key, so a retry after a timeout never books twice.
Paid from your wallet
Bookings are paid from your wallet, and a refused booking is refunded to it.
Limits you control
Limit each key to your own IP addresses, a number of requests a minute and a number of searches a day.
Webhooks for booking changes
Booking status changes and a low wallet balance are sent to your server as signed webhooks.

Choose the API if you have developers and want your own screens and booking flow. Choose the white-label website if you want to sell online without building anything.
