What is the IATA Developer Portal MCP Server?
Empower your AI agent to orchestrate your entire aviation research and logistics auditing workflow with the IATA Developer Portal, the official source for global aviation standards. By connecting IATA's reference data to your agent, you transform complex industry searches into a natural conversation. Your agent can instantly search for airport codes, audit airline identifiers, and retrieve aircraft metadata without you ever touching a technical manual. Whether you are conducting logistics research or building travel applications, your agent acts as a real-time aviation consultant, ensuring your data is always grounded in official, IATA-verified standards.
What you can do
- Airport Auditing — Search for global airports by IATA code and retrieve detailed metadata, including names and geographic locations.
- Airline Oversight — Audit airline identifiers and codes to maintain a clear view of carrier distribution and names.
- Aircraft Intelligence — Query aircraft types and codes to understand the technical equipment used in global logistics.
- City Discovery — Retrieve detailed city information associated with specific IATA codes to assist in geographic planning.
- Global Monitoring — List all supported countries in the IATA catalog to maintain strict organizational control over regional data.

Why Cursor?
Cursor's Agent mode turns IATA Developer Portal into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from IATA Developer Portal and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 6 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.
- —
Agent mode turns Cursor into an autonomous coding assistant that can read files, run commands, and call MCP tools without switching context
- —
Cursor's Composer feature can generate entire files using real-time data fetched through MCP. no copy-pasting from external dashboards
- —
MCP tools appear alongside built-in tools like file reading and terminal access, creating a unified agentic environment
- —
VS Code extension compatibility means your existing workflow, keybindings, and extensions all work alongside MCP tools

Frequently asked questions
How do I find my IATA API Key?
Log in to your IATA Developer portal, register for an API, and you will find your API Key in your subscription details. Copy and paste it below.
What codes are supported for search?
You can search for 3-letter airport codes (e.g., LHR), 2-letter airline codes (e.g., BA), and IATA aircraft codes (e.g., 744).
Is geographic location data included?
Yes. The search_airports and get_city_details tools include geographic metadata such as latitude and longitude where available.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Tools not appearing in Cursor
Ensure you are in Agent mode (not Ask mode). MCP tools only work in Agent mode.
Server shows as disconnected
Check Settings → Features → MCP and verify the server status. Try clicking the refresh button.
