Use this page to export supported route data.

This page uses `Route Export` as the primary name.

You may also see this API called `City Pairs API`.

### Main API

* `route/export.do`

### Use this when you need

* Route data exports
* Internal analytics support
* Operational review of route coverage

### Before you call

This API is intended for production route datasets.

Send:

* `routeType`

Use optional filters only when needed:

* `fromCity`
* `fromCountry`
* `toCity`
* `toCountry`
* `airlines`
* `pageNumber`
* `pageSize`

### Route types

* `1`: airline routes
* `2`: Atlas routes

### What the response can include

Returned route records can include:

* airline list
* origin and destination city or country
* direct or connecting indicator
* schedule window
* last update date

`isDirect` is relevant for Atlas route exports.

### Best practice

* use filters to reduce payload size
* paginate large exports instead of requesting everything at once
* refresh local route data based on `updateDate`
* separate airline-route exports from Atlas-route exports in your pipeline

### What to watch

* environment availability should be confirmed before integration
* route data is operational support data, not a booking guarantee
* returned schedules can change over time
* direct and connecting coverage depends on route type and source data
