Same way as railroad, only companies are different.

By the way, where is your effort?

Having airline company webservice is an easy way out. If for some reason, you are not able to do that then there is a hard way too:
Collate all the data from all the airlines and maintain them in your database. Then use this database to return the search result when needed. In this case, you need to keep track of any change and update your data-repository accordingly.

can you give me some hint or information about this easy way.

Easy way: Talk to airlines, ask if they have exposed a webserice which you can use in your application. If yes, then just refer the webservice and invoke it when required to get back the data. Thus, you dont need to worry about correctness of data and it will be maintained by airline people and not you.

Solution 1

I guess you would need a webservice from the airline company to point at.
Don't know if you can consume a webservice to get that info.
