How to Use the Expedia MCP in Mastra AI

Q: Can Mastra AI automatically retry failed Expedia booking attempts?

Yes. If bookflight encounters a network timeout, Mastra AI uses exponential backoff to retry the transaction without losing the session state.

Q: How does Mastra AI handle Expedia refund rules during cancellation?

The agent calls cancelflight to check refund eligibility. Your workflow then evaluates the returned status and decides whether to notify the user or escalate to an administrator.

Q: Can I build conditional routing based on hotel details?

Absolutely. Use getpropertydetail to retrieve hotel amenities, then write conditional TypeScript logic to filter out properties lacking specific features.

Run multi-step Expedia booking workflows with automatic retries and human-in-the-loop approvals using Mastra AI and this MCP Server.

Perplexity

Automate complex travel searches in Mastra AI

The `search_flights` and `search_cars` tools allow your Mastra AI agents to scan multiple travel verticals in parallel. The framework coordinates these queries, compiling flight schedules and vehicle availability into a single structured itinerary. If a search fails due to rate limits, Mastra's built-in workflow engine triggers automatic retries. Your workflows continue running in the background until they get the travel data they need.

Validate pricing with Mastra AI workflows

The `get_flight_quotes` and `get_room_quotes` tools provide the exact pricing data needed to verify deals before booking. Your workflows can compare these quotes against user-defined budget thresholds automatically. By using this MCP Server, your agents can branch conditionally based on price. If a flight quote exceeds the budget, the workflow routes to `search_properties` to find cheaper lodging alternatives.

Secure booking execution with human approval

The `create_booking` and `book_car` tools handle the final commitment of lodging and vehicle reservations. Mastra AI secures this step by requiring human-in-the-loop approval before executing the final API call. In case of unexpected booking failures, the MCP server's tools trigger compensation logic like `cancel_booking` to roll back half-completed itineraries. This prevents orphaned reservations and keeps your booking states clean.

Setup guide

Set up Expedia MCP in Mastra AI

Prerequisites

Node.js 18+ and a TypeScript project
@mastra/mcp + @mastra/core packages
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install dependencies
Run npm install @mastra/mcp @mastra/core plus your preferred model provider (e.g. @ai-sdk/openai).
2

Configure the MCPClient
Create an MCPClient with your Vinkius endpoint as a URL object. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Discover and inject tools
Call mcpClient.listTools() and spread the result into your agent's tools object. All Expedia tools become native Mastra tools.
4

Run with any model
Swap openai("gpt-4o") for any AI SDK-compatible provider. Call agent.generate() and the agent routes tool calls through MCP automatically.

agent.ts

import { MCPClient } from "@mastra/mcp";
import { Agent } from "@mastra/core/agent";
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";

const mcpClient = new MCPClient({
  id: "expedia-mcp-client",
  servers: {
    "expedia-mcp": {
      url: new URL(
        "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
      ),
    },
  },
});

const agent = new Agent({
  name: "Expedia Agent",
  model: openai("gpt-4o"),
  instructions: "You have access to Expedia tools.",
  tools: {
    ...(await mcpClient.listTools()),
  },
});

const result = await agent.generate(
  "List recent Expedia transactions"
);
console.log(result.text);
