Inspiration
This web application was geared towards the last minute and spontaneous traveler.
What it does
The theme inspired flights (served by the Amadeus Flight Theme API) allows a user to choose from options such as Beach, Casino, and other vacation ideas. The Sabre Flight API serves the roundtrip flights leaving the selected airport within 2-48 hours, giving the traveler access to price, destination and departure time, along with a connection to the city through images from the top Instagram photos from the locals in the area. When the traveler books, they are routed via the Google Flights API to book their choice flight.
