Rate-parity check with n8n
One call per market, identical except proxy_country, a two-letter code that routes through a residential proxy in that country. The agent compares the quotes and reports the spread. In a real capture on 2026-08-26 the US market saw the same room $195 cheaper than Germany and Israel.
Free tier on RapidAPI. No card to try.
Step 1 · Connect
Install the community node
Settings → Community nodes → Install → n8n-nodes-flightpowers (v0.2.2 on npm). Add your RapidAPI key once as a credential; every workflow reuses it.
n8n-nodes-flightpowersBring your own RapidAPI key: every request is billed to your own subscription, never ours.
Step 2 · Ask it
The prompt
The job in plain words. In n8n you express it as the node configuration below instead of a prompt.
“Price the Rixos Sungate in Antalya for Oct 5–10 as seen from the US, Germany, and Israel.”
Step 3 · Under the hood
What the node sends
The node issues this request against the same live API: real parameter names, exactly as the endpoint takes them.
// find_hotel_by_name
{
"hotel_name": "Rixos Sungate",
"area": "Antalya",
"checkin_date": "2026-10-05",
"checkout_date": "2026-10-10",
"proxy_country": "us"
}Step 4 · Read the response
Fields your logic reads
The response is flat JSON. These are the fields this recipe branches on, with what each one means.
availablebooleanFalse means sold out for the dates: the response keeps the same shape with nulls, so parsing never branches on an error format.
price_stringstringThe total rate for the stay as Booking.com displays it: “US$2,434”.
pricenumberThe same rate as a plain number, for comparing quotes across markets or dates.
room_typestringWhich room the rate belongs to: compare like with like across markets.
Questions, answered plainly
- Is my key billed to me?
- Yes. Your RapidAPI key lives in an n8n credential, the node sends it on every request, and usage meters against your own subscription on RapidAPI. There is no FlightPowers account and no second bill.
- Does this need a server of mine?
- Only your n8n instance, cloud or self-hosted. The node calls the API directly from wherever n8n runs; there is nothing of ours to deploy.
- What does it cost?
- The Booking.com Live API's free tier is 10 requests/month with a hard cap: enough to verify your key works, not to evaluate. The PRO plan is $10/month for 2,000 requests, and every plan includes every endpoint.
