My partner and I were spending hours searching across every website and also didn't want to pay for a search tool, so thought we would make our own. We currently service 9 airline programs (AeroMexico, Air Canada, Air France / KLM, American, Avianca, Delta, Iberia, United, and Virgin Atlantic).

Would love any feedback or suggestions on how we can make Roame more helpful.
so do you approach aa and get them to agree to allow your api access to the site? or have to pay them for usage? or is this like figuring out internally what they are doing and replicating it and hoping they don't get annoyed by queries?

i have this too, in newsletters and the subscription page on the website, although i'm already upgraded as well
