Perplexity

Full trip automation with Windsurf

Cascade takes your natural language goal and chains the necessary tools to build a complete itinerary. It starts by using `search_regions` to find the correct destination, then queries `search_flights` and `search_properties` to populate your options. Once the data is ready, the agent presents a coherent plan. You don't have to manage the sequence; Windsurf handles the tool handoffs to ensure the flight and hotel data match your constraints.

Real-time quote verification

Stop guessing at travel costs by pulling live data directly through the MCP Server. Cascade calls `get_flight_quotes` and `get_room_quotes` to provide exact pricing for your specific dates. This keeps your planning accurate before you commit to a reservation. You get the current rates without leaving your editor, ensuring every itinerary item is backed by today's market availability.

Secure booking execution

Turn your travel plan into confirmed reservations using `book_flight` and `create_booking`. Cascade executes these actions only after you verify the specific details, maintaining control over your financial transactions. Manage everything from one place, including cancellations via `cancel_flight` or `cancel_booking`. The agent tracks your booking IDs, allowing you to modify your plans without logging into a browser.
