Built-in capabilities (12)

autocomplete_airport

Returns matching airports ranked by relevance with IATA/ICAO codes, full names, cities, countries, and airport types. Ideal for building airport search interfaces, type-ahead functionality, and airport identification when the user only knows part of the airport name or code. Essential for travel application development, airport search workflows, and user-friendly airport identification. AI agents should use this when users type partial airport names or codes and need quick suggestions, or when the exact airport code is unknown but a partial name is provided. Search airports by name or code with autocomplete suggestions

get_aircraft

Returns aircraft registration number, ICAO type code, manufacturer and model, owner/operator, registration country, year built, engine type and count, and current operational status. The hex code is a unique identifier assigned to each aircraft transponder and can be found in flight tracking data. Essential for aviation enthusiasts, aircraft tracking, fleet verification, and detailed aircraft research. AI agents use this when users have an aircraft hex code from flight tracking data and need to look up the full aircraft registration and specifications. Get information about a specific aircraft by hex code

get_airline_fleet

Get the complete fleet composition of an airline

get_airline_routes

Returns route pairs (origin-destination airports), frequency of service, days of operation, aircraft types deployed on each route, and whether the route is seasonal or year-round. Essential for route network analysis, airline competitive intelligence, aviation market research, travel itinerary planning, and airline hub/spoke structure analysis. AI agents should reference this when users ask "show me all United routes", "what routes does Ryanair operate", or need to understand an airline route network for competitive analysis or travel planning. Get all routes operated by a specific airline

get_airlines

Supports filtering by country code, IATA code, ICAO code, airline name, or callsign. Returns airline details including IATA/ICAO codes, full name, country of registration, callsign, fleet size, founding year, hub airports, airline type (scheduled, cargo, charter), and operational status (active, inactive). Essential for airline industry research, competitor analysis, travel planning context, aviation market intelligence, and airline profile generation. AI agents should use this when users ask "show me all airlines in the US", "tell me about Lufthansa", "what airlines fly from Dubai", or need airline metadata to contextualize flight and fleet data. Search and retrieve airline database information

get_airport_delays

Returns average departure and arrival delays in minutes, delay trends compared to historical averages, on-time performance percentages, cancellation rates, and weather-related delay indicators. Essential for travel planning, delay prediction, passenger communication, airline operations coordination, and airport performance monitoring. AI agents should reference this when users ask "are there delays at JFK", "how is LAX performing today", or need to assess airport operational conditions that may affect flight schedules. Get current delay statistics for a specific airport

get_airports

Supports filtering by country code, city name, IATA code, ICAO code, airport name, or timezone. Returns airport details including IATA/ICAO codes, full name, location (city, state, country), geographic coordinates (latitude, longitude, elevation), timezone, airport type (large, medium, small), and operational status. Essential for airport identification, travel planning, geographic aviation research, multi-airport city analysis, and flight briefing preparation. AI agents should reference this when users ask "show me all airports in Germany", "find airports in Tokyo", "what is the ICAO code for Heathrow", or need airport metadata to contextualize flight queries. Search and retrieve airport database information

get_flight_info

g., "UA123" for United 123). Returns complete flight details including airline information, aircraft type and registration, departure and arrival airports with terminals and gates, scheduled and estimated/actual times, current flight status, delay indicators, and baggage claim information. Critical for passenger travel updates, detailed flight status queries, airline operations coordination, and travel itinerary verification.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

Can my AI search for all active flights operated by a specific airline like United or Delta?

Yes! Use the get_flights tool with the airline IATA code parameter (e.g., "UA" for United, "DL" for Delta, "BA" for British Airways). Your AI agent will return all currently active flights with flight numbers, aircraft types, departure and arrival airports, current positions, altitudes, speeds, and flight statuses. For a complete list of all routes that an airline operates, use get_airline_routes with the same airline IATA code. This gives you both real-time operational data and the full route network.

02

How do I check flight schedules between two specific airports for travel planning?

Use the get_schedules tool with the airline IATA code, and optionally the departure airport IATA (dep_iata) and arrival airport IATA (arr_iata) parameters. For example, to see all schedules from JFK to LAX, you would specify dep_iata="JFK" and arr_iata="LAX". The API will return all scheduled flights with airlines, flight numbers, aircraft types, departure and arrival times, and days of operation. You can also filter by a specific date to see schedules for your exact travel day.

03

Can I look up the complete fleet composition and aircraft details for an airline?

Absolutely! Use the get_airline_fleet tool with the airline IATA code (e.g., "UA" for United, "EK" for Emirates). Your AI will return the complete fleet with all aircraft registrations, types (Boeing 737, Airbus A380, etc.), ages, delivery dates, and operational status. This is perfect for fleet analysis, understanding airline strategy, comparing competitor fleets, or researching aircraft utilization patterns.

04

What is Agent mode and why does it matter for MCP?

Agent mode is Cursor's autonomous execution mode where the AI can perform multi-step tasks: reading files, editing code, running terminal commands, and calling MCP tools. Without Agent mode, Cursor operates in a simpler ask-and-answer mode that doesn't support tool calling. Always ensure you're in Agent mode when working with MCP servers.

05

Where does Cursor store MCP configuration?

Cursor looks for MCP server configurations in a mcp.json file. You can configure servers at the project level (.cursor/mcp.json in your project root) or globally (~/.cursor/mcp.json). Project-level configs take precedence.

06

Can Cursor use MCP tools in inline edits?

No. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode through the chat panel. Inline completions and Tab suggestions do not trigger MCP tool calls. This is by design. tool calls require user visibility and approval.

07

How do I verify MCP tools are loaded?

Open Settings → Features → MCP and look for your server name. A green indicator means the server is connected. You can also check Agent mode's available tools by clicking the tools dropdown in the chat panel.

08

Tools not appearing in Cursor

Ensure you are in Agent mode (not Ask mode). MCP tools only work in Agent mode.

09

Server shows as disconnected

Check Settings → Features → MCP and verify the server status. Try clicking the refresh button.
