Google Flights Search (Real-Time Fares)
Server Details
Real-time Google Flights fares for agents. Three things people do with this server. Scan for deals: one call takes a date range and a list of destination airports, expands every combination server side, and returns each fare with Google's own low, typical or high verdict. Put live search in your app: flat JSON with a bookable link on every result, and round trips priced as paired legs. Run a 24/7 AI travel agent: add the server, sign in with Google, and schedule it. No ads, no sponsored content. You bring your own RapidAPI key, so every search is billed to your plan and never to anyone else's. Add https://flights.flightpowers.com/mcp , click Sign in, sign in with Google, and paste your RapidAPI key once on the page that opens. Scripts and clients without a sign-in button send the key as x-rapidapi-key on the same URL.

Scored across 2 tools
The two tools are cleanly split by trip type: one-way versus round-trip. An agent can select the correct one from the query's return-trip requirement without any overlap.
Both tools follow the same search_<trip_type>_flights pattern using snake_case. The naming is predictable and signals the key distinction immediately.
Two tools is minimal, but they map directly to the two core fare-search modes and each supports flexible dates and multiple destinations. No redundant tools exist, though the set is slightly below the typical 3-15 range.
The tool surface covers one-way and round-trip fare searches with flexible dates, multi-destination input, and price insights. Multi-city itineraries are not explicitly supported, which is a minor gap for a Google Flights search server.
Available Tools
2 toolssearch_oneway_flightsFlightPowers: search one-way flightsARead-onlyInspect
FlightPowers one-way fare search: live prices read from Google Flights. Input: origin and destination IATA codes -- the destination may be several codes, as "BCN,LIS,ATH" or ["BCN","LIS","ATH"] -- plus either one departure date or a date range. Returns each flight's price, airline, duration, stops, a bookable buy_link, and Google's historical price range (price_insights_low / price_insights_high) so you can say whether a fare is actually a good deal.
Use it for any one-way fare question, including open-ended ones. For a flexible search make ONE call with a date range and/or several destinations -- do NOT call it once per date. 'Cheapest flight to Sri Lanka anywhere in October' is one call, not thirty.
Each date/destination combination is one billed request; the count and the plan's remaining quota come back in api_usage.
by_destination carries one entry per destination you asked for -- empty ones included, each with a reason -- so read it before telling a user a destination has no flights.
Requires the caller's own RapidAPI key for the Google Flights Live API. Get one (free tier available) at https://rapidapi.com/mtnrabi/api/google-flights-live-api, then pass it as an x-rapidapi-key header (preferred), a ?rapidapi_key= query parameter on the server URL, or your client's own API key field -- first non-empty wins. Usage counts against the caller's own RapidAPI plan, not ours; every response reports what it spent and what is left in api_usage.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| limit | No | Maximum flights to return, after merging and sorting. | |
| sort_by | No | "best", "price", or "duration". Applied across all results. | best |
| currency | No | ISO currency code, default "usd". | usd |
| max_price | No | Only return flights at or below this price. | |
| max_stops | No | Maximum stops per flight. 0 means non-stop only. | |
| seat_type | No | 1 economy, 2 premium economy, 3 business, 4 first. | |
| passengers | No | Passenger counts as [adults, children, infants]. | |
| to_airport | Yes | Destination airport. One IATA code ("BCN"), several separated by commas ("BCN,LIS,ATH"), or a list (["BCN","LIS","ATH"]) -- every shape is accepted and the destinations are compared in the same search. | |
| from_airport | Yes | Origin IATA code, e.g. "TLV". One origin per search; a second one is refused rather than searched. | |
| max_searches | No | Cap the billed requests this call may make. Lower it to spend less of the plan's quota on a wide search; the range is then sampled evenly rather than cut short. | |
| use_fallback | No | Leave unset. Switches the search to a second, independent flight data source instead of the usual Google Flights page read. Unset already escalates to that source once, automatically, after a search's retries have failed. true forces it inline on every attempt -- much slower, and it can time out. false disables it entirely, that automatic retry included. | |

Output Schema
| Name | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| message | No | Present when there is something the model must relay to the user rather than silently absorb -- no results, a degraded search, a missing key or a spent quota. |
| partial | No | Present when some searches failed but others succeeded. Plain text saying how much of the request the results cover. |
| results | Yes | The itineraries or properties found, already sorted and deduplicated. An empty array is only meaningful when search_status is 'empty'. |
| api_usage | No | What this call cost the caller's own RapidAPI plan, and what remains on it. Present on every response that reached the upstream, including a degraded one -- a search that failed was still billed. |
| signup_url | No | Where the caller subscribes or changes plan. |
| result_count | No | |
| needs_api_key | No | True when no usable RapidAPI key arrived with the call, or the upstream rejected the one that did. No search was run and nothing was billed; signup_url and message say how to fix it. |
| search_status | No | Whether the underlying search actually completed, read from the backend's X-Search-Status header. 'ok': every combination searched returned results. 'empty': the search completed and Google genuinely has no itineraries for it -- a real answer, not a failure. 'partial': some combinations returned results and some failed, so the list is incomplete. 'degraded': every combination failed, so the search did not happen and an empty list means nothing; this case is also flagged with isError: true and is safe to retry. |
| by_destination | No | One entry per destination the REQUEST asked for, in request order, present whether or not that destination has any flights in `results`. A destination with an empty `rows` array is a hole in the answer, and `reason` says which kind of hole: 'no_flights' (searched, answered, Google has nothing), 'search_failed' (searched and the search errored, so nothing is known), 'not_in_limit' (searched, found flights, none fitted in `limit`) or 'not_searched' (never searched -- the per-call fan-out cap sampled it away). 'ok' means it has rows. Read this rather than inferring coverage from `results`: a destination missing from `results` looks identical to one that has no flights, and they are not the same answer. `rows` are the same row objects that are in `results`, in the same order -- nothing here is data the answer does not already contain. |
| quota_exhausted | No | True when the caller's RapidAPI plan has no requests left for the current period. |
| search_coverage | No | What was actually searched. Present whether or not the request was truncated, so a model can state honestly what its answer rests on. |
TDQS
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations carry only the basic safety profile (readOnly=true, non-destructive, open-world, non-idempotent). The description adds substantial operational behavior beyond them: each date/destination combination is one billed request against the caller's own RapidAPI quota, api_usage reports spending and remaining quota, by_destination includes empty entries with a reason so the agent must read it before claiming a destination has no flights, and auth requires the caller's own key with a documented precedence order. This far exceeds annotation coverage with genuinely useful context.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Purpose is front-loaded in the first clause, and each paragraph earns its place: returns, batching guidance, billing model, by_destination caveat, auth. The RapidAPI paragraph is the longest but is operationally necessary since the tool cannot be called without a caller-provided key. Zero filler, though the auth section could have been tightened slightly.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a 20-parameter tool with billing and auth dependencies, everything operational is covered: return contents (backed by an output schema), correct call batching, quota accounting, empty-result handling, and key provisioning. The only unspoken item is the explicit round-trip alternative, and with the sibling named in the title and the 'one-way' scope stated twice, that gap is negligible.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% so the baseline is 3, but the description adds real cross-parameter meaning: the multi-shaped to_airport inputs are compared in the same search, departure_date_from/to form a single search span rather than per-date calls, max_searches caps billed requests with even sampling rather than truncation, use_fallback's escalation behavior is explained, and auth key precedence is specified. It complements the schema rather than repeating it.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Opens with 'FlightPowers one-way fare search: live prices read from Google Flights' — a specific verb, resource, and data source in the first clause. The 'one-way' scope cleanly distinguishes it from the lone sibling search_roundtrip_flights, and the description enumerates the returned fields (price, airline, duration, stops, buy_link, price insights) so the agent knows exactly what it produces.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
States 'Use it for any one-way fare question, including open-ended ones' and gives explicit batching instruction: 'make ONE call with a date range and/or several destinations — do NOT call it once per date,' with a concrete example ('Cheapest flight to Sri Lanka anywhere in October' is one call, not thirty). It stops just short of explicitly naming search_roundtrip_flights for round-trip queries, though the 'one-way fare question' phrasing implies that exclusion.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
search_roundtrip_flightsFlightPowers: search round-trip flightsARead-onlyInspect
FlightPowers round-trip fare search: live prices read from Google Flights, priced as paired legs rather than two separate one-ways. Input: origin and destination IATA codes -- the destination may be several codes, as "BCN,LIS,ATH" or ["BCN","LIS","ATH"] -- a departure date or range, and either a return date or a trip length in nights. Returns the total price for both legs, per-leg airline, stops and duration, and a single bookable buy_link for the trip.
Use it for any return-trip fare question. For a flexible search make ONE call: pass departure_date_from / departure_date_to for the outbound range and nights instead of return_date to compare trip lengths -- '5 to 7 nights in Rome sometime in May' is one call.
Each date/destination combination is one billed request; the count and the plan's remaining quota come back in api_usage.
by_destination carries one entry per destination you asked for -- empty ones included, each with a reason -- so read it before telling a user a destination has no flights.

| Name | Required | Description | Default |

| return_date | No | Fixed return date. Use this OR nights, not both. | |
| from_airport | Yes | Origin IATA code, e.g. "TLV". One origin per search; a second one is refused rather than searched. | |

TDQS
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The description discloses much more than the annotations alone: every date/destination combination is one billed request, quota usage is reported in api_usage, fallback behavior and its performance trade-offs are explained, and empty destination entries come with a reason. It also explains that the caller's own RapidAPI key is used, which is critical operational context. No contradiction with the read-only annotation.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is long but dense and every section earns its place: purpose, usage pattern, billing model, output field guidance, and authentication. The most important scoping and usage information is front-loaded, and the structure is easy to scan.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a complex tool with 19 parameters, external API-key requirements, per-request billing, and fallback behavior, the description covers all the essential context an agent needs. It explains authentication, quota attribution, how to interpret destination entries, and how to control search costs, making it complete despite the rich schema and output schema.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Although schema coverage is 100%, the description adds meaning beyond the schema: it explains the flexible search pattern using departure_date_from/departure_date_to plus nights, the multi-destination input formats, max_searches sampling behavior, and the use_fallback escalation semantics. This materially helps an agent choose and fill parameters correctly.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states a specific verb and resource: search round-trip flights with live prices from Google Flights. It further specifies that results are priced as paired legs rather than two separate one-ways, which clearly distinguishes this tool from the sibling search_oneway_flights even without naming it.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description explicitly says 'Use it for any return-trip fare question' and gives a detailed example of when to make a single flexible call. It does not explicitly name the one-way sibling as an alternative or state 'do not use for one-way searches,' so it stops short of the full when/when-not/alternatives guidance.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

Frequently Asked Questions
Claiming proves that you control a remote MCP connector. It does not move, proxy, or interrupt the server.
Open the connector listing, choose Claim ownership, and sign in to Glama.
Complete one verification method:
GitHub identity – fastest for official registry listings. For a namespace such as
io.github.alice/server, link the matching GitHub user, then choose Claim with GitHub. An organization namespace such asio.github.acme/serveralso needs that organization to have installed the Glama AI GitHub App and approved its permissions, because GitHub discloses organization membership only to apps it has installed. Use HTTP or DNS when it has not.HTTP challenge – works when you can deploy a public file. Generate a token, publish the exact JSON Glama shows at
/.well-known/glama.jsonon the same origin as the connector, then choose Check HTTP challenge.DNS challenge – works when you control DNS but cannot change the server. Generate a token, create the exact TXT record Glama shows, wait for it to propagate, then choose Check DNS challenge.
After verification, Glama sends a confirmation email and gives you access to listing details, thumbnails, health checks, and analytics. Keep the HTTP file or DNS record in place: Glama periodically checks it and ownership remains verified while the token is discoverable.
The HTTP ownership file has this structure:
{
"$schema": "https://glama.ai/mcp/schemas/connector.json",
"claim": "glama_claim_..."
}Claim tokens are opaque, stable, and bound to the signed-in Glama account. They contain no email address or other personal information. If Glama can no longer discover a verified HTTP or DNS token, it starts a seven-day grace period before removing claim-based access. Restore the same token during that period to keep ownership verified. Never publish an email address, Glama session token, GitHub token, or connector credential as ownership proof.
If verification fails, confirm that you copied the current token exactly. The HTTP file must be public, return valid JSON with a successful HTTP response, and stay on the connector's origin. DNS changes may need more time to propagate. A claim cannot transfer to a different origin or hostname: if the connector target changes, Glama starts the grace period and the new target must be claimed separately after the previous claim is released.
For a connector linked to the official MCP Registry, registry updates continue to replace its name, description, and URL by default. After claiming, open Manage connector and enable Use Glama listing details as the source of truth if edits made on Glama should be preserved. Categories and thumbnails are always managed on Glama; registry linkage and technical connection settings continue to sync.

The connector status is unhealthy when Glama is unable to successfully connect to the server. This can happen for several reasons:
The server is experiencing an outage
The URL of the server is wrong
Credentials required to access the server are missing or invalid
