# Flight Price MCP Server — Claude, Cursor & AI Agents (`makework36/flight-mcp-server`) Actor Plug-and-play multi-source flight price MCP server (Google Flights, Kiwi, TAP, JetBlue, and more) for Claude Desktop, Cursor, Claude Code, ChatGPT and any MCP-compatible AI agent. IATA airport codes in, curated flight data out. - **URL**: https://apify.com/makework36/flight-mcp-server.md - **Developed by:** [deusex machine](https://apify.com/makework36) (community) - **Categories:** AI, Integrations, Travel - **Stats:** 1 total users, 0 monthly users, 0.0% runs succeeded, NaN bookmarks - **User rating**: No ratings yet ## Pricing from $30.00 / 1,000 tool calls This Actor is paid per event and usage. You are charged both the fixed price for specific events and for Apify platform usage.

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Flight Price MCP Server Plug-and-play multi-source flight price search as a native **Model Context Protocol** (MCP) server. Connect your AI agent (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Claude Code, ChatGPT, VS Code, Codex) and search flights with IATA airport codes in natural language. ### Connect from your MCP client MCP Standby endpoint: ```` https://makework36--flight-mcp-server.apify.actor/mcp?token=YOUR\_APIFY\_TOKEN ```` #### Claude Desktop ```json { "mcpServers": { "flight-price": { "url": "https://makework36--flight-mcp-server.apify.actor/mcp?token=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN" } } } ```` #### Cursor / Claude Code / VS Code Use [mcp.apify.com](https://mcp.apify.com) — select this Actor, click the install line for your client. ### Available tools #### `search_flights` Search real flight prices by IATA airport codes. **Arguments:** | Name | Type | Required | Description | |------|------|----------|-------------| | `origin` | string | ✅ | Origin IATA code (e.g. `LAX`, `JFK`, `MTY`, `MAD`) | | `destination` | string | ✅ | Destination IATA code | | `departDate` | string | ✅ | `YYYY-MM-DD` | | `returnDate` | string | — | `YYYY-MM-DD` round-trip (omit for one-way) | | `adults` | integer | — | 1–9, default 1 | | `cabinClass` | enum | — | `ECONOMY`, `PREMIUM_ECONOMY`, `BUSINESS`, `FIRST` | | `currency` | string | — | Default `USD` | | `maxFlights` | integer | — | 1–100, default 20 | **Returns:** compact JSON with query summary + up to `maxFlights` flights (best price per source, airline, departure/arrival times, duration, stops, cabin classes). ### Pricing **$0.03 per successful tool call.** Failed calls are not billed. ### Use cases for AI agents - **Travel assistants**: "find the cheapest flight LAX→NRT in July" - **Comparison bots**: aggregate prices across Google Flights, Kiwi, TAP, JetBlue - **Price-watch workflows**: schedule periodic searches + alert when prices drop - **Itinerary builders**: feed multiple legs back-to-back into an agent reasoning loop ### Under the hood Wraps the `makework36/flight-price-scraper` Actor which queries multiple flight data sources in parallel: - Google Flights - Kiwi.com - TAP Air Portugal - JetBlue - and more Each `search_flights` call returns the cheapest result per source so the agent can reason about best options. ### Related - [Skyscanner MCP Server](https://apify.com/makework36/skyscanner-mcp-server) — dedicated Skyscanner search with entity IDs + cheapest-destination mode. - [Airbnb MCP Server](https://apify.com/makework36/airbnb-mcp-server) — vacation rentals. - Upstream scraper: [flight-price-scraper](https://apify.com/makework36/flight-price-scraper). # Actor input Schema ## `showSetupInstructions` (type: `boolean`): When enabled, the test run outputs MCP connection details (the Standby URL you paste in your AI client) and the full list of available flight-search tools — search\_flights — with their IATA-code arguments, example queries, and per-call pricing. Leave this enabled if you are exploring the Actor for the first time. This setting has no effect when the Actor is invoked via its Standby MCP endpoint from Claude, Cursor, or any other AI client. ## Actor input object example ```json { "showSetupInstructions": true } ``` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = {}; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("makework36/flight-mcp-server").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
