AirShopping returns priced availability offers for the requested Origin and Destination, dates and passengers.

Preferences such as cabin, stops, special fares and discounts can be included. By default, public fares are returned together with Seat Only Private Fares, when the IATA/ARC Travel Agent has access to them, when no FarePreferences is included in the request. Private fares are identified by a FareCode in the response.

Before sending this request the AirlineProfile (list of Origins & Destinations) supplied by Iberia should be checked, ensuring shopping is only done for IB marketed routes.

Offers where the fare rule is instant purchase and there are more than four hours till departure, payment time limit of two hours will be given. If the fare rule is instant purchase and there are less than four hours till departure, payment time limit will not show, thereby meaning payment must be sent in OrderCreate.
