Netrows MCP Tools for Claude Code (12)
These 12 tools become available when you connect Netrows to Claude Code via MCP:
get_account_usage
The Netrows API operates on a credit-based system where each API call consumes 1 credit. Essential for monitoring API consumption, budget management, rate limit awareness, and planning integration usage patterns. AI agents should query this when users ask "how many credits do I have left", "what is my API usage this month", or need to monitor their API consumption before running large batch queries. Check your API account usage and remaining credits
get_aircraft_info
g., "N12345" for US-registered, "G-EUUU" for UK). Returns aircraft type (manufacturer and model), registration country, owner/operator information, registration status, year built, engine type (jet, turboprop, piston), number of engines, aircraft age, and category (airline, business jet, private, cargo). Critical for aviation enthusiasts, fleet tracking, aircraft utilization analysis, and private aviation monitoring. AI agents should reference this when users ask "tell me about aircraft N12345", "who owns this tail number", or need aircraft specifications to contextualize flight data. Get registration details and specifications for a specific aircraft
get_airline_flights
g., "UA" for United, "DL" for Delta, "BA" for British Airways). Returns flight numbers, aircraft registrations and types, origin-destination pairs, scheduled and actual times, and current status for all flights in the airline fleet. Essential for airline operations monitoring, fleet utilization analysis, competitor intelligence, and passenger rebooking during disruptions. AI agents use this when users ask "show me all United flights right now", "what is Delta flying", or need to track an entire airline operational picture in real-time. List all active flights operated by a specific airline
get_airline_info
Returns airline name, IATA/ICAO codes, callsign, country of registration, fleet size, destination count, hub airports, and operational status. Essential for airline industry research, competitor analysis, travel planning context, and aviation market intelligence. AI agents should reference this when users ask "tell me about United Airlines", "what is the ICAO code for Delta", or need airline metadata to contextualize flight and fleet data. Get information and details for a specific airline
get_airport_flights
Returns a comprehensive list of inbound and outbound flights with airline/operator, flight number, aircraft type, origin/destination airports, scheduled and actual times, and current flight status (en-route, landed, scheduled, delayed, cancelled, diverted). Essential for airport operations management, passenger pickup coordination, ground handling planning, and flight activity monitoring. AI agents should reference this when users ask "what flights are at X airport", "show me all activity at Y", or need to monitor airport traffic patterns. List all arriving and departing flights at a specific airport
get_airport_info
g., "JFK" or "KJFK" for New York JFK, "LAX" or "KLAX" for Los Angeles International). Returns airport name, location (city, state, country), IATA/ICAO/FAA codes, geographic coordinates (latitude, longitude, elevation), timezone, and operational status. Essential for airport identification, travel planning, flight briefing preparation, and geographic reference.
