Rome2Rio Rate Limits

Machine-readable rate limit definitions for the Rome2Rio API surface. The Basic Access tier allows up to 100,000 search requests per month. Commercial tiers are negotiated directly. Rate-limit response headers and exact burst ceilings are not publicly documented; values below are scaffold defaults to be reconciled with Rome2Rio on partner onboarding.

Rome2Rio Rate Limits is the machine-readable rate-limit profile for Rome2Rio on the APIs.io network, in the API Commons Rate Limits shape.

It captures 4 rate-limit definitions, across the basic and commercial tiers, measuring requests_per_month and requests_per_minute.

Limit state is signalled in the limit, remaining, reset, and retryAfter response headers, and an exhausted limit returns HTTP 429.

This profile was written by API Evangelist and has not been verified against a page the provider published; treat every limit as unconfirmed until a dated transcription replaces it.

The profile also includes 4 backoff/retry policies defined and response codes documented for throttled, quotaExceeded, and serviceUnavailable.

Tagged areas include Travel, Multi-Modal, Transportation, Routes, and Transit.

Policies

Backoff Strategy
Clients should implement exponential backoff with jitter when receiving 429 responses, honoring the Retry-After header when present.
Burst Handling
Short bursts above the steady-state per-minute limit may be tolerated up to the burst ceiling before throttling engages.
Quota Reset
Monthly quotas reset at the start of each calendar month. Per-minute windows reset on a rolling basis.
Key Parameter
The API key is passed as the `key` query parameter on all requests to the free.rome2rio.com endpoint. Example — /api/1.4/json/Search?key=YOUR_KEY.
