What does it take for an AI agent to search and book a flight without creating accounts or managing subscriptions?

BRIJ flight search went live on pay.sh on Oct. 15, 2026, letting agents reach live airline fares and handle bookings through onchain USDC escrow on Solana. The Solana Foundation posted the update the same day. BRIJ confirmed the activation on X the following day.

Direct access for agents

Agents reach the flight search endpoints with no signup step. They pay per call and move forward immediately. The setup removes the usual account creation and key management that often slow down automated workflows.

Live fares and booking flow

Agents search current airline fares through the BRIJ Flight API. Once a fare looks right, they lock it via onchain USDC escrow. The service page shows that paid calls run through x402 metering, so each request settles on the spot.

Escrow details from BRIJ

BRIJ stated that every booking creates its own onchain escrow. The refund wallet is fixed at the moment of creation. Funds stay in escrow until the order captures or a refund triggers. If the booking fails, the full amount returns automatically. The fare is rechecked right before payment. Any change stops the escrow step and sends the agent back to search again.

What the API supports

The BRIJ Flight API on the pay.sh service page lists live flight search plus escrow backed booking on Solana. Agents can submit passenger details, check order status, and request refunds. All steps stay inside the same onchain flow.

pay.sh service basics

pay.sh lets agents pay for APIs per request. No accounts, keys, or subscriptions appear in the process. The model fits agents that need occasional or variable access rather than standing contracts.

Timeline notes

The go live date of Oct. 15, 2026 stands separate from the BRIJ X update on Oct. 16, 2026. Both dates are confirmed in the source posts. The integration keeps the payment and refund logic fully onchain, which matches the pay as you go approach already described.

Practical outcome for agents

An agent can now move from fare search to locked booking and possible refund inside one onchain sequence. The escrow holds the USDC until the order settles or cancels. This removes the need for offchain payment rails or stored credentials.

The service stays open for any agent ready to call the endpoints. Soft park remains active as the day count continues toward the expected range.
