# Airport Transfer Cost Calculator AI Agent Connect

> Airport Transfer Cost Calculator MCP handles the math for transportation logistics. Your AI agent uses it to calculate specific trip prices, check if a destination is within service limits, and compare different pricing tiers like Economy or Premium. It's built to turn distance and base fare data into clear, actionable cost estimates.

## Description

You can stop manually calculating mileage and base rates for airport trips. This MCP gives your AI client a dedicated engine to handle transportation math. When you're planning routes, your agent can use it to find the final price for a specific trip or check if a requested distance actually falls within a provider's service area. If you need to plan for multiple trips or different distance tiers, the MCP provides bulk estimates to keep your planning accurate. You can also run side-by-side comparisons between different service levels, such as comparing an Economy rate against a Premium rate for the same distance. It's a direct way to bring precise logistics pricing into your AI-driven workflows.

## Tools

### compare_service_tiers
This tool compares two different pricing structures for the same distance. It helps you see the cost difference between service levels like Economy and Premium.

### get_bulk_pricing_estimate
This tool provides a range of costs across different distance tiers. Use it to plan for various trip lengths at once.

### get_transfer_cost
This tool calculates the final price for a specific trip. It factors in base fares and distance rates to give you a single total.

### validate_trip_feasibility
This tool checks if a requested distance is within the service area's capabilities. It prevents your agent from booking trips that are too far away.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the cost for a 25km trip with a $10 base fare and $2 per km rate?
```

**Response:** 
```
The total cost for the 25km trip is $60.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Is a 50km trip possible if the maximum service radius is 40km?
```

**Response:** 
```
No, the trip is not feasible as it exceeds the maximum service radius.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Compare an Economy tier ($5 base, $1.5/km) with a Premium tier ($20 base, $3/km) for a 10km trip.
```

**Response:** 
```
The Economy tier costs $20 and the Premium tier costs $50. The Economy tier is cheaper.
```
