• 05

  Is the transit data real-time?

  Yes, the MCP accesses live feeds to provide real-time departure times, arrival times, and active service disruption alerts.

• 06

  Can my AI plan a complete multimodal trip from my hotel to a tourist attraction using public transit?

  Yes! Use the plan_trip capability with your hotel address or name as the origin and the tourist attraction as the destination. The Lyko routing engine will return complete door-to-door itineraries combining buses, trains, subways, trams, and walking segments with departure times, arrival times, total duration, number of transfers, line names, operators, walking distances, and real-time delay information. You can also specify preferred transport modes or a desired departure time. Perfect for tourist planning, business travel, and navigating unfamiliar European cities.

• 07

  How do I check real-time departures and arrivals at a specific train station or bus stop?

  First, use search_stops to find the stop by name (e.g., "Gare du Nord" or "Alexanderplatz"). Once you have the stop ID, use get_departures to see upcoming services with ETAs, platforms, and delay indicators, or get_arrivals to track incoming services. The results include line names, destinations, scheduled vs. real-time times, and operator information. This is perfect for passenger pickup coordination, connection planning, and monitoring service reliability.

• 08

  Can I check if there are any service disruptions or strikes affecting transit operators in France or Germany?

  Absolutely! Use get_operators with the country filter (e.g., "FR" for France, "DE" for Germany) to list all available operators, then use get_network_status with the operator ID (e.g., "sncf" for SNCF, "db" for Deutsche Bahn) to check current service disruptions, planned works, strike notifications, weather impacts, and line closures. This gives you real-time awareness of transit reliability across 300+ European operators. AI agents can proactively alert travelers to service issues before trip planning.
