whentofly
Hosted MCP server for finding cheap round-trip flights across flexible dates, no key or signup
Install
claude mcp add whentofly https://whentofly.io/mcp?ch=githubThis is third-party code. Review the repository files before installing.
What it does
Gives an agent two tools: search_locations turns a place name into an airport or city market code, and search_flights finds the cheapest round trips within a date window and trip length. Each fare comes with a booking link and a price level against the route's usual range. Omit the destination to get the cheapest places to fly from your origin.
Who it is for. People planning trips with flexible dates who want to search flights through an agent.
