Booking Optimization: For frequent travelers, having access to historical flight prices can help optimize booking decisions. You can identify patterns in pricing fluctuations and choose the best times to book flights.

Sort:  

You can expand and customize this script to provide more detailed recommendations, consider factors like airline preferences or budget constraints, and integrate it into a user-friendly application for frequent travelers.

In this script:

flight_data represents the sample flight price data for different destinations. Replace this with your actual data or fetch it through web scraping or an API.
The recommend_booking_time function filters the flight data for the specified destination, calculates monthly average prices, and identifies the month with the lowest average price.
The script provides a recommendation for the best time to book a flight to the specified destination based on historical price trends.

Sample flight price data (You can replace this with your actual data)

flight_data = [
{"destination": "Paris", "date": "2023-09-01", "price": 500},
{"destination": "Paris", "date": "2023-09-02", "price": 480},
{"destination": "Paris", "date": "2023-09-03", "price": 520},
{"destination": "Paris", "date": "2023-09-04", "price": 490},
{"destination": "Paris", "date": "2023-09-05", "price": 510},
# Add more flight data here...
]

Function to recommend the best time to book a flight to a destination

def recommend_booking_time(flight_data, destination):
# Filter flight data for the specified destination
destination_data = [flight for flight in flight_data if flight["destination"] == destination]

if not destination_data:
    return "No data available for this destination."

Sort flight data by date

sorted_data = sorted(destination_data, key=lambda x: x["date"])

Calculate the average price for each month

monthly_average_prices = {}
for flight in sorted_data:
    year_month = flight["date"][:7]  # Extract year and month (e.g., "2023-09")
    if year_month not in monthly_average_prices:
        monthly_average_prices[year_month] = {"total_price": 0, "count": 0}
    monthly_average_prices[year_month]["total_price"] += flight["price"]
    monthly_average_prices[year_month]["count"] += 1

Calculate the average price for each month

for month, data in monthly_average_prices.items():
    data["average_price"] = data["total_price"] / data["count"]

Find the month with the lowest average price

best_month = min(monthly_average_prices, key=lambda x: monthly_average_prices[x]["average_price"])
best_month_avg_price = monthly_average_prices[best_month]["average_price"]

return f"The best time to book a flight to {destination} is in {best_month} with an average price of ${best_month_avg_price:.2f}."

Example usage

destination = "Paris"
recommendation = recommend_booking_time(flight_data, destination)
print(recommendation)
