In situations like this, you will get results far faster by asking your question on the web site of the API provider.

How on earth do you expect us to be able to help you when you don't even tell us the name of that provider. Think man!

As far as I remember but I might be wrong, the "database" used for this kind of searches is called SABRE, and is not available to the public, contracts and fees need to be paid before access is granted, probably sites like Orbitz or Expedia expose a web service or something similar probably needs to be done with them, as they rely on sales to keep up and providing those services for free means less sales for them.

Now, nobody here is going to give you full code, so you better go ahead, start coding and come with a specific problem, it this is urgentzzzz as you say, I'll be more than happy to code whatever you need, do more research about what you want, etc etc for a fee, it can be project or hourly based, up to you.
