Investigating

We are currently investigating an issue affecting the Google Flights API where searches using the `deep_search` parameter may timeout. At this time, the issue appears to impact the majority of requests made with this parameter enabled.

Public Roadmap:

As a temporary workaround, we recommend omitting the `deep_search` parameter.

We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience while we work on a fix.
