Short answer

How can I update my flight trip data using AI?

You can use your agent to pull current trip details and push updates for passenger info or flight status changes. This keeps your travel manifest in sync with real-world changes automatically. You'll see how the agent handles cancellations and modifications below.

Where every update lands.

The outcomes of your updates

Every action your agent takes results in one of these four states.

SYNCED

Accurate trip records

The agent uses the data to ensure your passenger details match the current booking. Your records stay clean without manual entry.

NOTIFIED

Flight change alerts

When a flight is altered, the agent updates the system and flags the change. You get immediate visibility into schedule shifts.

CANCELLED

Voided trip status

If a flight is pulled, the agent marks the trip as cancelled. This prevents stale data from cluttering your active manifest.

REVIEW

Human intervention needed

If the agent encounters a conflict it can't resolve, it flags the trip for you. You decide how to proceed with complex rebookings.

The workflow

What your AI does when a change occurs.

Your agent acts as the bridge between external flight updates and your internal records.

  1. Fetch current data

    The agent first looks up the existing trip to see what needs changing.

    get_trip

  2. Apply passenger edits

    Once the trip is identified, the agent modifies specific passenger details as requested.

    update_trip

  3. Handle cancellations

    If a flight is no longer running, the agent marks the trip accordingly.

    inform_cancelled

  4. Report schedule shifts

    The agent updates the system when flight times or numbers change.

    inform_changed
