Destination Intelligence
Turn "Paris" into a bookable destination ID. Location search is the first API call in every travel workflow.
Why Location Search Is Step Zero
Every hotel search, flight query, and car rental lookup starts with a destination. Users type "Berlin" or "Times Square" — your platform needs to resolve that into a structured ID that downstream APIs understand. The Search Locations API handles ambiguity (London, UK vs. London, Ontario), returns multiple result types (city, region, landmark, airport), and gives you the exact IDs you need.
What It Returns
dest_id — Unique destination identifier
dest_type — City, region, landmark, hotel, airport
name — Canonical destination name
country — Country name and code
region — Region or state context
coordinates — Latitude and longitude for mapping
