# Date Range Search

Version 2 searches only from_date per request and returns its cheapest outbound starting price and departure_token. Use search_metadata.next_departure_date as from_date on a separate paid call to continue through to_date. Each call completes one upstream lookup, retrying temporary failures of that same lookup; failures are not billed.
