How to Use the Expedia MCP in Vercel AI SDK

Q: Can I stream hotel photos using Expedia and Vercel AI SDK?

Yes. Use getpropertydetail to fetch images and structural data, then stream the structured JSON directly into your React components.

Q: How does Vercel AI SDK handle Expedia booking cancellations?

Your agent calls cancelbooking with the active reservation identifier. The SDK streams the cancellation status and refund details back to the UI in real-time.

Pipe live Expedia travel options directly into your Vercel AI SDK interface using our managed MCP server.

Perplexity

Resolve destinations instantly in Vercel AI SDK

The `search_regions` tool resolves messy user text queries into precise geographic codes required for travel bookings. Your interface receives these region IDs in real-time, letting you instantly populate maps or drop-down menus. Once you grab the region ID, feed it straight into `search_properties` to show available hotels. The Vercel AI SDK handles this handoff on the edge, keeping latency under a few hundred milliseconds.

Stream flight and room quotes live

The `get_flight_quotes` and `get_room_quotes` tools pull real-time pricing directly into your user interface. Instead of rendering a blank screen, your AI client displays live fare updates as they hit the wire. This MCP server handles the heavy lifting of API connections in a secure sandbox. Users see exact pricing options instantly, allowing them to compare rates side-by-side inside your custom chat UI.

Execute bookings with live user confirmation

The `book_car` and `book_flight` tools require explicit confirmation parameters before committing any financial transaction. Your application uses these tools to assemble booking payloads, then pauses for a final user click. If a user needs to change plans, our MCP server's `cancel_flight` and `cancel_booking` tools handle the reversal flows. This ensures your interface stays synchronized with active reservations without lagging behind backend updates.

Setup guide

Set up Expedia MCP in Vercel AI SDK

Prerequisites

Node.js 18+ and a TypeScript project
ai + @modelcontextprotocol/sdk packages
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install dependencies

Run npm install ai @modelcontextprotocol/sdk plus your preferred model provider (e.g. @ai-sdk/openai).
2

Create the Streamable HTTP transport

Use StreamableHTTPClientTransport with your Vinkius endpoint URL. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Discover and use tools

Call mcpClient.tools() to auto-discover all Expedia tools. Pass them directly to generateText() or streamText() — no manual schema definitions needed.
4

Works with any model provider

Swap openai("gpt-4o") for any AI SDK provider — Anthropic, Google, Mistral. The MCP tools work identically across all supported models.

index.ts

import { experimental_createMCPClient as createMCPClient } from "ai";
import { StreamableHTTPClientTransport } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/streamableHttp";
import { generateText } from "ai";
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";

const transport = new StreamableHTTPClientTransport(
  new URL("https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp")
);

const mcpClient = await createMCPClient({ transport });
const tools = await mcpClient.tools();

const { text } = await generateText({
  model: openai("gpt-4o"),
  tools,
  prompt: "List recent Expedia transactions",
});

console.log(text);
await mcpClient.close();
