FAQ

How this task behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI book a flight for me?

    No. The AI only retrieves scheduled route and airport data. It cannot perform bookings or transactions.

  • 02

    Does the AI update flight schedules?

    No. The AI reads the data provided by Aviationstack. It cannot change or modify any flight information.

  • 03

    Can I use this to track a specific flight in real-time?

    No. This task is for auditing scheduled routes and airport lists, not for real-time flight tracking.

  • 04

    What happens if I use an incorrect airport code?

    The AI will try to use the airport tool to find the right code. If it can't find a match, it will tell you the location is unknown.

  • 05

    Can the AI tell me the price of a ticket?

    No. The available tools provide route and airport information, but they do not include pricing or fare data.
