bags_allowed	The number of allowed bags for the trip.
bags_count	The searched number of bags.
total_price	The total price for the trip.
travel_time	The total travel time.

python3 -m solution example/example0.csv WIW ECV --bags=1

and get the following result:

[
    {"flights": 
        {
         "flight_no": "ZH151",
         "origin": "WIW", 
         "destination": "ECV", 
         "departure": "2021-09-11T07:25:00", 
         "arrival": "2021-09-11T12:35:00", 
         "base_price": "245.0", 
         "bag_price": "12", 
         "bags_allowed": "2"
         }, 

         "bags_allowed": 2, 
         "bags_count": 1, 
         "destination": "ECV", 
         "origin": "WIW",
