Flamingo - Your New Way to Book Travel
Flamingo is a consumer travel brand in Iraq: an Arabic website and iOS and Android apps where travelers book flights and hotels in Iraqi dinar. CloudFares delivered the backend behind it, the booking API that powers search, pricing, booking and ticketing across every Flamingo channel.

One backend, many fronts: The same API has to serve a web app and two mobile apps consistently, with one source of truth for fares, bookings and payments.
Consumer-grade speed: Travelers expect results in seconds; supplier responses arrive at different speeds and in different formats.
Local currency and payment: Prices in dinar and payments through local methods, settled reliably with the airlines and hotels behind them.
A clean booking API: Flight and hotel search, pricing, booking, ticketing and booking history exposed as one API that Flamingo's own frontends build on.
Supplier aggregation: Airline and hotel sources merged, de-duplicated and normalised server-side so every channel shows the same results.
Asynchronous search: Results stream in as suppliers answer, with the slow ones never blocking the fast ones.
Secure by design: Authentication, rate limiting and audit trails suitable for a public consumer product.
Built on a proven core: The same booking engine CloudFares runs for its agent platforms, adapted for a consumer brand.
Flamingo is live on the web and in the App Store and Google Play, with flights and hotels bookable by the public. Flamingo's team owns the customer experience while CloudFares runs the booking backend that every channel relies on.
More travel products: Extending the API to the next services Flamingo wants to sell.
Loyalty and offers: Backend support for seasonal deals and returning-traveler rewards.
Deeper analytics: Reporting on search and booking behaviour to guide Flamingo's growth.
Conclusion
Flamingo shows CloudFares as the engine behind a consumer travel brand: a backend that lets a partner focus entirely on its customers while we take care of search, booking and ticketing.
