Live flight routing and pricing in Claude Desktop

Finding the cheapest dates and direct routes usually requires clicking through clunky booking sites. Now your AI client handles the heavy lifting. You can ask Claude to map out flight options from a specific origin using `get_flight_destinations`, and it pulls the raw data straight into your chat. The `search_flights` tool grabs current offers while `get_flight_dates` pinpoints the cheapest departure windows. If you need to check direct routes from a local hub, `get_direct_destinations` returns exact airport codes and availability without leaving the app.

Pull specific hotel offers on demand

Booking APIs are notoriously painful to query manually. This setup gives you direct access to accommodation data by city code or specific property. You just tell Claude where you want to look. Running `search_hotels` drops a list of properties into your context window. Once you find a match, `get_hotel_offers` retrieves pricing and room types for that exact hotel ID. No more switching tabs to compare rates.

Map out points of interest via MCP Server

Planning an itinerary means mapping coordinates to actual places people want to visit. Claude does this natively by hitting the search endpoints. You get accurate location data formatted exactly how you need it. Feed coordinates into `get_travel_recommendations` to see what is nearby. You can also run `search_cities` to grab IATA codes, or use `search_poi` to find landmarks and restaurants around a specific address.
