I've found KE usually to be pretty fast (maybe they're having a bad day, or purposefully throttling you), but you can change the timeout directly in the code here:
https://github.com/flightplan-tool/f...engine.js#L177
One of the changes in V2 was to better consolidate configuration in one place (like timeouts) but it still requires editing a file. Not sure if it's really worthwhile to expose settings like timeout's in the command line interface. There's a tradeoff, where you don't want to make the timeout too high, because sometimes it's better to just give up sooner and retry the request (that may be faster than waiting for the original request to complete). SQ will even hang search requests indefinitely, if they detect you're a bot.

Install on fresh ubuntu 18.04 and seems commander has an issue related to this: https://github.com/tj/commander.js/issues/786
andrew@FlightPlanVM2:~$ flightplan search
flightplan-search(1) does not exist, try --help

Ended up just calling node directly which works, but SQ saying 403, yet logging in manually works.
andrew@fp:~$ node .config/yarn/global/node_modules/flightplan-tool/bin/cli-search.js -w SQ -f MEL -t SIN -c first -s 2018-11-01 -e 2018-11-30 -q 2 -h
Searching 30 days of award inventory: 11/01/2018 - 11/30/2018
SQ: Logging in...
SQ: Login success!
SQ: Loading airports...
SQ: Found 687 airports
SQ: DEPARTURE [SIN -> MEL] - 11/01/2018 (2 Passengers)
Received non-OK HTTP Status Code: 403
SQ: DEPARTURE [SIN -> MEL] - 11/02/2018 (2 Passengers)
SQ: Cool-down period, resuming in 13 minutes

New version released: 0.2
Hi all, Happy Columbus Day! 
The new version of Flightplan is out, you can get it by opening a command line and running:
After that (it may take a while to install), run "flightplan --version", and you should see the following:
Important Instructions:
Lots of new stuff in this release, including:
SFO-HKG award availability from six different engines.
Awards included from multiple partner airlines.
At a glance view of segment details, award pricing, and quantities!
Same UA award, fetched from both NH and AC.
Support for mixed cabin awards.
The new version of Flightplan is out, you can get it by opening a command line and running:
yarn global upgrade flightplan-tool
❯ flightplan --version
0.2.2
0.2.2
- The database format has changed significantly, if running flightplan from a directory with an existing database, please delete the "db" directory. Otherwise, you will get an error when running flightplan. You may also delete the "data" directory to clean things up, this is optional.
- The JSON format for storing usernames / passwords has been dropped in favor of a simpler CSV-like format. When you run flightplan, it will ask if you'd like it to convert the old JSON file. You'll still need to add entries for AC and BA manually (since they're new). In whatever directory you run "flightplan" command from, look for "config/accounts.txt" and open it with a text editor (like notepad.exe on Windows, or TextEdit on the Mac). The format is pretty self-explanatory (e.g. "BA:Username:Password").
Lots of new stuff in this release, including:
- Support for two new engines: AC and BA
- Partner award search (Some engines like AC automatically return partner awards, whereas others like KE or SQ you must explicitly request it by adding --partners to the search command)
- Multi-segment awards are now supported (before only non-stop awards were considered)
- Your search settings in the web UI are now remembered, even after closing the browser.
- When you hover over a date in the web UI, you will still see an overview of award availability like before. If you click on the date, it will pop up a full schedule of all awards, including detailed segment information (such as cabin, aircraft, connection times, lag days, durations).
- When available, award cost in miles is also shown, in the detailed view (in a few cases it's unavailable, like BA awards or KE partner awards).
- There are some additional filtering controls in the web UI: mixed cabin awards, partner awards, # of stops. Additional things like red-eye flights, duration, award pricing are on the todo list.
- Proxy support, in case your IP is being blocked. (Currently at the API level, adding a command-line switch is on the todo list.)
- General reliability / compatibility fixes, any engines that were obviously broken, have been fixed. Some other issues, like certain airport codes with NH not being selectable, have also been fixed.
- Due to all the new stuff, I expect there to be bugs. I've not had time to really stress test the new version, or check many of the edge cases, so if you see weirdness or errors, please report it! A Github issue is the best way, as it keeps the conversation easier to follow, but if you don't have a Github account, posting in this thread is fine too.
- Support for more websites is coming, but I'm more focused right now on ironing out the bugs in this new release. If there's a website you'd really like to see added, be sure to mention it in the thread!

Hello! The demo is impressive and love what you did on visualization, great job!!
I want to try it out myself but could not get it to work on either windows10 or maxos mohave.
Windows 10:
node & yarn installed successfully
upon executing 'yarn global add flightplan-tool', it throws an error on 'better-sqlite3'
I tried on MacOS as well, this time filghtplan installed successfully
but upon running, it gives a different error:
Really wanted to make this work and can't figure out how. If you could help that would be great! Thanks!

I'm running Mojave myself, and not seeing it, but it seems related to the latest version of yarn. There'll be a fix for it, either tonight or tomorrow. If you open Terminal, run the below command and paste the output here, I can confirm if it's the same issue or not.
ls -l `which flightplan`

You should delete your "data" and "db" directories, the database format is totally different in the new version. Flightplan's picking up the old database, and getting confused by it.

The error is saying it couldn't find VS build tools, did you maybe forget to install them? In the README, it's this step:
That error looks suspiciously similar to the one ferni filed an issue for: https://github.com/flightplan-tool/flightplan/issues/7

Two more things to check: did you run as "admin" when you installed in powershell the first time? Also did you restart after installing the build tools?
