It abstracts away the HTTP requests and HTML parsing (via beautifulsoup4) and handles transport via curl-cffi with brotli compression support.\n\nThe package is designed for educational exploration of aviation data. It exposes methods to fetch flights, airports, airlines, and zones as Python objects. However, the documentation explicitly warns that commercial use is prohibited under FlightRadar24's terms; the official FR24 API exists for that purpose. The package is actively maintained, supports Python 3.10\u20133.13, and has low install friction.","worth_installing":"Yes, if your use case is educational or personal research. The package is actively maintained, has low install friction, and MIT licensing is permissive. However, do not install for commercial purposes\u2014FlightRadar24's terms explicitly prohibit that, and the official API exists for paid access. Verify that your intended use complies with their terms of service before deploying."},"id":"flightradarapi","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/flightradarapi","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/flightradarapi.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/flightradarapi/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-13","license_spdx":"MIT","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"FlightRadarAPI","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"SDK for FlightRadar24"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":181614,"position":10118,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.5.3"}
