Abstract
The key objective of this project is to develop a robust flight fare prediction
model that can accurately forecast ticket prices based on various factors
such as departure/arrival dates, airline, flight duration, and more. This will
empower users to make informed decisions when booking flights.
Introduction
3 Practical Applications
The predictions can be integrated into travel booking platforms to
enhance the user experience.
System Requirements
Hardware Software Data Sources
The system requires a machine with at The project uses Python 3.x along with Historical flight data from reputable

to handle the data processing and Scikit-learn, and Matplotlib. booking platforms, and government
model training. databases.
Architecture
1 Data Collection
Gather historical flight data from various sources and
consolidate into a structured dataset.
2 Data Preprocessing
Clean, normalize, and engineer features from the raw data
to prepare it for model training.
3 Model Training
Apply machine learning algorithms like regression, decision
trees, or neural networks to train predictive models.
