About Eurowings
Eurowings is the low-cost, point-to-point airline of the Lufthansa Group. It is headquartered in Dusseldorf, its largest base, and also operates from other German airports such as Cologne/Bonn, Hamburg, Stuttgart and Berlin, along with bases outside Germany. Its routes are mostly short and medium-haul: German domestic flights, European city links, and a large holiday programme to the Mediterranean and the Canary Islands. Although it belongs to the Lufthansa Group, Eurowings is not itself a Star Alliance member.
Searching Eurowings on IATA.co works the same way as any other carrier. Enter the trip in the booking portal, or query the flights API, and the results are live. Eurowings fares appear in your search results whenever our flight suppliers offer them for your route and dates. Bookings are paid from a prepaid balance. Its fare types range from basic to more inclusive ones, so look at the fare rules shown before you confirm.

Booking Eurowings fares as a travel agent
Travel agents book Eurowings fares on IATA.co without their own IATA accreditation. Activate an agency account, top up a prepaid balance, then search live EW fares in the booking portal: the price, baggage and fare rules are shown with each offer before you confirm, and the amount is deducted from your balance. Eurowings results appear whenever our flight suppliers return them for your route and dates, so what you can book follows live supplier content rather than a direct airline deal.
Search Eurowings (EW) through the flights API
Developers and agencies can run the same Eurowings search from their own site, app or back office through the IATA.co flights API. Filter a search by the carrier code EW and read the fares back as JSON, then book from the same prepaid balance. See the flights API and the API docs for the full reference.
