Skyscanner Scraper
skyscanner.net
Skyscanner is the one target on this list that does not need parsing at all. Instead of returning a page for you to process, ScrapeUnblocker exposes three dedicated plugin endpoints that run the search and hand back clean JSON quotes. You pass an origin, a destination and dates; you get priced itineraries back.
What you can extract
- Flight quotes: price, currency, carrier, stops, departure and arrival times
- Hotel quotes: property name, star rating, review score, nightly price
- Car hire quotes: supplier, vehicle class, pickup and drop-off, total price
- Entity IDs resolved from plain place names via the locations helpers
- Deep links back to the booking page for every quote
Dedicated endpoints
/flights/skyscanner-quotes Flight quotes
Priced flight itineraries for a route and date range, including carrier, stop count and booking deep link.
/hotels/skyscanner-quotes Hotel quotes
Hotel availability and nightly pricing for a destination and stay dates, with rating and review score.
/carhire/skyscanner-quotes Car hire quotes
Car rental offers for a pickup location and period, with supplier, vehicle class and total price.

const su = new ScrapeUnblockerClient({ apiKey: process.env.SU_API_KEY });
const results = await su.skyscanner.flights({
origin: 'London',

console.log(results);Requests are POST and take their parameters in the query string. Browser rendering always happens - there is no flag to enable.

}Frequently asked questions
Is it legal to scrape Skyscanner?
Collecting publicly available flight, hotel and car-hire quotes is generally legal, and courts have repeatedly upheld access to public web data. You stay responsible for how you use it. ScrapeUnblocker runs the public search and returns the quotes; what you collect and how you use it is your decision.
How do I scrape Skyscanner without getting blocked?
You do not have to parse anything or fight the anti-bot layer yourself. ScrapeUnblocker exposes three dedicated endpoints that run the search behind Skyscanner's in-house detection and hand back clean JSON quotes, at a 100% success rate in our benchmark.
What data do the Skyscanner endpoints return?
Flight quotes with price, currency, carrier, stops and departure/arrival times; hotel quotes with property name, star rating, review score and nightly price; car-hire quotes with supplier, vehicle class, pickup/drop-off and total price - each with a deep link back to the booking page.
Do I need a Skyscanner API or partner account?
No. There is no Skyscanner developer account or partner approval involved - you pass an origin, destination and dates (place names resolve to entity IDs via the locations helpers) and get priced itineraries back.
Can I get quotes for any route and dates?
Yes. Give an origin, a destination and your travel dates and the endpoint returns priced itineraries; the hotel and car-hire endpoints work the same way for a destination and stay or rental period.
How much does it cost?
ScrapeUnblocker is priced per request, not per gigabyte - from about EUR 1 per 1,000 requests down to roughly EUR 0.55 at volume, with a predictable bill.
