## Description

If you organize group travel, you know the headache of managing dozens of different deposit dates and installment amounts. This MCP gives your AI agent the math and logic needed to manage those finances without you manually checking spreadsheets. You can ask your agent to build a full payment timeline for a single traveler or check the total collection progress for an entire group. It also helps you avoid mistakes by validating that your proposed installment plans are mathematically sound before you send them to clients. When travelers need to cancel, the MCP calculates the exact penalty based on your specific tiers so you don't have to guess. It turns your AI client into a specialized travel finance assistant that keeps your group bookings on track.
