## MCP tools (5)

### `search_travel_options` (~224 tokens)

Primary travel search workflow for one origin-destination airport pair. Use when the user wants flight/trip options for a specific route; use compare_routes for multiple routes, build_booking_link only when route details are already known, and get_airport_info only to validate one airport. Read-only, no authentication, no booking side effects. return_date is optional; omit it for one-way trips. Responses include route metadata and may include commission-eligible external booking links.

Input parameters:

- `currency` (string): ISO 4217 currency code (default: USD). Used in booking link parameters.
- `departure_date` (string): Departure date in YYYY-MM-DD format. Optional — omit for open date searches.
- `destination` (string, required): Destination airport IATA code (e.g. 'LHR', 'NRT'). Case-insensitive.
- `origin` (string, required): Origin airport IATA code (e.g. 'LAX', 'JFK'). Case-insensitive.
- `return_date` (string): Return date in YYYY-MM-DD format. Omit for one-way trips.

### `get_airport_info` (~95 tokens)

Look up metadata for one airport by IATA code. Use to validate or explain a single airport code before route planning; use search_travel_options for an actual trip search and compare_routes for multiple origin-destination pairs. Read-only, no authentication, no external booking links, and no booking side effects.

Input parameters:

- `code` (string, required): Three-letter IATA airport code (e.g. 'SFO'). Case-insensitive.

### `compare_routes` (~101 tokens)

Compare two or more airport route pairs side by side. Use when the user is choosing between alternate origins, destinations, or airports; use search_travel_options for one dated route and get_airport_info for a single airport lookup. Read-only, no authentication, no booking side effects. Responses may include commission-eligible external booking links for each route.

Input parameters:

- `routes` (array, required): Array of route pairs to compare. Minimum 1, typically 2-5.

### `build_booking_link` (~181 tokens)

Generate only an external booking link for an already chosen route. Use after route details are known or after compare_routes/search_travel_options; do not use as the first step when the user still needs search guidance. Read-only, no authentication, no booking completion, and no reservation side effects. The returned link may be commission-eligible and is disclosed in output.

Input parameters:

- `currency` (string): ISO 4217 currency code (default: USD).
- `departure_date` (string): Departure date in YYYY-MM-DD format. Optional.
- `destination` (string): Destination IATA code (e.g. 'CDG'). Case-insensitive.
- `origin` (string): Origin IATA code (e.g. 'IAH'). Case-insensitive.
- `return_date` (string): Return date in YYYY-MM-DD format. Optional — omit for one-way.

### `explain_travel_timing` (~120 tokens)

Explain general travel timing and logistics, including booking windows, airport arrival timing, layovers, and seasonal considerations. Use for advice questions like when to book or how early to arrive; use search_travel_options when the user wants route-specific flight search. Read-only, no authentication, no external booking link, and no booking side effects.

Input parameters:

- `destination` (string): Destination IATA code. Optional — used to determine if route is international.
- `origin` (string): Origin IATA code. Optional — used to determine if route is international.
