Building a Python-based airline solution using Amadeus API

Hi Guys,

Today, I’ll share a little different topic in Python compared to my last couple of posts, where I have demonstrated the use of Python in the field of machine learning & forecast modeling.

We’ll explore to create meaningful sample data points for Airlines & hotel reservations. At this moment, this industry is the hard-hit due to the pandemic. And I personally wish a speedy recovery to all employees who risked their lives to maintain the operation or might have lost their jobs due to this time.

I’ll be providing only major scripts & will show how you can extract critical data from their API.

However, to create the API, you need to register in Amadeus as a developer & follow specific steps to get the API details. You will need to register using the following link.

Step 1:

Once you provide the necessary details, you need to activate your account by clicking the email validation.

Step 2:

As part of the next step, you will be clicking the “Self-Service Workspace” option as marked in the green box shown above.

Now, you have to click “My apps“ & under that, you need to click – “Create new app” shown below –

Step 3:

You need to provide the following details before creating the API. Note that once you create – it will take 30 minutes to activate the API-link.

Step 4:

You will come to the next page once you click the “Create” button in the previous step.

For production, you need to create a separate key shown above.

You need to install the following packages –

pip install amadeus

And, the installation process is shown as –

pip install flatten_json

And, this installation process is shown as –

1. clsAmedeus (This is the API script, which will send the API requests & return JSON if successful.)

Let’s explore the key lines –

Creating an instance of the client by providing the recently acquired API Key & API-Secret.

# Setting Clients
amadeus = Client(
                    client_id=str(self.client_id),
                    client_secret=str(self.client_secret)
                )

The following lines are used to fetch the API response for specific business cases. Different invocation of API retrieve different data –

# Flight Offers
# Flight Cheapest Date Search
response = amadeus.shopping.flight_dates.get(origin=origLocn, destination=destLocn)

The program will navigate to particular methods to invoke certain features –

# Main Area to call apropriate choice
if choice == 1:
    resJson = self.flightOffers(origLocn, destLocn, departDate, noOfAdult)
elif choice == 2:
    resJson = self.cheapestDate(origLocn, destLocn)
elif choice == 3:
    resJson = self.listOfHotelsByCity(origLocn)
elif choice == 4:
    resJson = self.listOfOffersBySpecificHotels(hotelID)
elif choice == 5:
    resJson = self.hotelReview(hotelID)
else:
    resJson = {'errorDetails': 'Invalid Options!'}

2. callAmedeusAPI (This is the main script, which will invoke the Amadeus API & return dataframe if successful.)

# Converting JSon to Pandas Dataframe for better readability
# Capturing the JSON Payload
res_1 = json.dumps(retJson)
res = json.loads(res_1)

Now, the above line will convert the return payload to JSON.

Sample JSON should look something like this –

Now, using this new package, our application will flatten the complex nested JSON.

# Newly added JSON Parse package
dic_flattened = (flatten(d) for d in res)
df_ret = p.DataFrame(dic_flattened)

The given lines will remove any duplicate column if it exists.

# Removing any duplicate columns
df_ret = df_ret.loc[:, ~df_ret.columns.duplicated()]

Let’s explore the directory structure –

Let’s run our application –

We’ll invoke five different API’s (API related to different functionalities) & their business cases –

Run – Option 1:

So, if we want to explore some of the key columns, below is the screenshot for a few sample data –

Run – Option 2:

Some of the vital sample data –

Run – Option 3:

Sample relevant data for our analysis –

Run – Option 4:

Few relevant essential information –

Run – Option 5:

Finally, few sample records from the last option –

So, finally, we’ve done it. You will find that JSON package from this link.

During this challenging time, I would request you to follow strict health guidelines & stay healthy.
