A flight searching program which looks for low valued flights and sends a SMS alert. Default origin location is Airport IAH in Houston, TX

Features:

• Uses Sheety to read destination ideas and update IATA codes
• Uses Tequila to search for flights
• Uses Twilio to send out an automated SMS
• Search time frame is from tomorrow to 6 months
• Specify the maximum price wanted in the Google Sheets
• Sends out a SMS if a flight is below the maximum expected price
• Can easily switch to SMTP mail if SMS is deemed unworthy (See bottom of notification_manager.py)

How to run:

• Download repository
• Open downloaded repository with a command line interface
• Create an account on Twilio, get your api key, account sid, phone numbers, and update notification_manager.py
• Create an account on Tequila, get your api key and update flight_search.py
• Create an account on Sheety, get your api key and update data_manager.py
• Create a Google Sheet and setup / give access to Sheety to access
• Fill out relevant info (See Excel screenshot below for example). There is no need to provide the IATA codes -> the program will do it for you
• Set a low price. The low prices I obtained were from Google flights
• run pip install twilio
• run python main.py
• Script will be run and message will be sent if flight price meets threshold. Can also easily be updated to send SMTP
