I still subscribe to RFF (5 years) and am happy with them. Don’t understand the big deal about web scraping. Travel basically relies on scraping. Read this website. It
makes clear just how widespread web scraping in travel is. https://research.aimultiple.com/scraping-travel-data/
Trivago, Kayak , Expedia, Travelocity & lots of travel companies scrape. It is completely normal. It is not illegal.
As it is so widespread, I would imagine Seatspy scrapes too.
Plus this article is from years ago. History. We've had Covid since then!
