What it does

SlickTrip connects to assistants that support the Model Context Protocol (MCP), so you can ask for travel prices in plain language and get SlickTrip's live results back inside the conversation. You can:

  • Search flights and hotels with live prices, filters and a price spread
  • See the cheapest days to fly a route on a calendar
  • Check which seats are still open on a specific flight
  • Set an alert on a fare, a hotel stay, a seat, or a bucket list for a route or a place with flexible dates and a price you are willing to pay
  • Read and change what you are watching, or stop watching it
  • Share a trip as a link, or open any result on slicktrip.com

When a watched price drops, or a watched seat opens, SlickTrip emails or texts you the same way it does for alerts set on the website.

Add it in Claude

SlickTrip is in Claude's connector directory. In Claude, open Customize, then Connectors, search for SlickTrip and click Connect, or go straight to claude.ai/customize/connectors/id/slicktrip. Connecting asks you to sign in to a free SlickTrip account with Google, Apple or your email, and returns you to Claude. It then works in every chat, in the Claude desktop and mobile apps too. On a Team or Enterprise plan, an Owner may need to allow it first.

To add it by URL instead, in Claude Code or another MCP client, use https://mcp.slicktrip.com/mcp.

Add it in ChatGPT

SlickTrip is in ChatGPT's app directory. Open chatgpt.com/apps, search for SlickTrip and add it. On a Business or Enterprise workspace, an admin may need to allow it first.

What needs an account

In Claude, everything works as soon as you connect, because connecting is when you sign in.

In ChatGPT you can search before signing in: flight and hotel search, the price calendar, recent deals, opening a shared trip and looking up which airlines fly a route, with a few free searches a day. Alerts, your own watchlists, live seat maps and the hotel price calendar need a free SlickTrip account. The first time you need one, ChatGPT shows a sign-in prompt; you sign in with Google, Apple or your email and are returned to the conversation.

No paid plan is required. The free tier allows two tracked items of each type.

Booking and payment

SlickTrip does not sell tickets and takes no payment. When you are ready to buy, SlickTrip lists the sellers currently offering that itinerary or stay and hands you to the airline's or seller's own checkout, where that seller completes the purchase under its own terms. No card details or payment step exist inside the assistant or on slicktrip.com. SlickTrip earns an affiliate commission from some sellers when a booking follows one of these links, which does not change the price you pay and does not affect how results are ranked.

What the connector can and cannot change

Tools that only read are marked read-only, and tools that create or change an alert are marked as writes, so your assistant can tell them apart and ask you first. Stopping an alert or removing a bucket list is marked destructive: it permanently removes that record, so your assistant confirms with you before calling it. SlickTrip never books, cancels or changes a reservation with an airline or hotel, and never moves money.

Your data

The connector uses the same account and the same data as the website. It reads and writes only your own SlickTrip records: your tracked fares, stays, seats and bucket lists, and your alert settings. Search requests go to the same travel data sources the website uses. Nothing about a seller's booking request leaves our servers. Full detail, including retention and how to delete your data, is in our Privacy Policy, and our terms are in our Terms of Service.

Troubleshooting

  • The assistant says a tool does not exist. Assistants cache the tool list from when you connected. In Claude, open Customize, then Connectors, then SlickTrip; choose Disconnect from the ⋮ menu and connect again. In ChatGPT the list updates by itself when a new version of the app is published.
  • A search returns nothing. Check the airport or city code, or ask the assistant to look it up. Departures more than 329 days out are not priced.
  • An alert did not arrive. Check the channel on your profile; text alerts need a verified phone number.
  • Anything else. Email support@slicktrip.com.
