Flight Booking App Development

PerfectionGeeks builds flight booking apps and web portals for travel agencies, online travel agencies (OTAs), corporate travel companies and airlines. We connect your app to flight content through GDS systems such as Amadeus, Sabre and Travelport, airline NDC APIs or B2B flight suppliers, and build search, fare rules, seat and baggage selection, payments, ticketing, cancellations and refunds. A basic app starts from about $15,000; full OTA platforms are quoted after scoping.

  • Flight content comes from a GDS (Amadeus, Sabre, Travelport), airline NDC APIs or a B2B flight supplier; the choice affects cost, fares and certification.
  • Core features: search and filters, fare rules, booking and ticketing, seat and baggage selection, payments, cancellations, refunds and notifications.
  • Selling tickets usually needs either IATA accreditation or a consolidator or supplier who issues tickets for you.
  • Typical cost: from $15,000 for an app on one supplier API; full OTA platforms with multiple suppliers and back office are quoted after scoping.
  • Typical timeline: 3–4 months for an MVP, 5–8 months for a full platform.
