Why people use SITA Airport Reference API
SITA Airport Reference API for Aviation Infrastructure Data
With this Connector, you just tell your AI agent what you need. It pulls the latest metadata, terminal layouts, and IATA codes directly from the SITA database. You go from manual data management to getting accurate aviation info in a single prompt, which keeps your app data clean and your dev time focused on actual features.
What Vinkius changes
You get instant access to global aviation infrastructure data without managing the underlying database.
Use it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or another AI client you already have.

Before you connect
Questions about SITA.
The practical details behind the request, access and result.
Can the SITA Airport Reference API give me terminal layouts?
Yes, it provides specific details on terminals and gate areas for airports. You can ask your agent to pull these layouts to help with passenger routing or infrastructure planning.
Does this Connector include IATA codes for all global airports?
It provides access to the global airport database, which includes IATA codes, names, and locations for airports registered with SITA. It's a reliable source for standard aviation identifiers.
Can I use this to get coordinates for my travel app?
Yes, you can use the capability to get precise coordinates and timezone information for specific airports by providing their IATA code. This ensures your maps and local time displays are accurate.
How do I get my own API key for the SITA Airport Reference API?
You'll need to register at the SITA Developer Portal to get your unique API key. Once you have that, you can connect it to this Connector via Vinkius to start using it with your AI client.
Is this capability good for flight scheduling?
No, this Connector is specifically for airport reference data like terminal layouts, IATA codes, and coordinates. It does not provide real-time flight schedules or booking information.
Can I query multiple airports at once using the SITA Airport Reference API?
You can ask your agent to look up specific airports one by one or in a list. The agent will use the reference capabilities to pull the metadata you need for each location.
What format are airport codes in?
The API uses standard 3-letter IATA airport codes (e.g., 'LHR' for London Heathrow, 'JFK' for New York JFK, 'GRU' for São Paulo Guarulhos).
Is this a read-only API?
Yes, all 3 capabilities are strictly read-only queries. The integration retrieves reference data and cannot modify anything in the SITA database.
