For agents.

The index is an MCP server. An agent can look up a private terminal, its price, its sources, and the operator’s booking link.

Prices are indicative. They were current on the date each entry was last checked, and they can change. Search, get, list and compare are read-only. They do not book a visit and they do not take payment. Booking links carry ref=planeside-mcp. The operator’s own site still takes the booking.

request_arrangement records a request for Planeside to arrange a terminal that is flagged for it. Consent is required. It is not a booking, no payment is taken, and it must not be packaged with a flight.

Endpoint: https://planeside.flights/api/mcp

Tools

• search_services. Filter by airport or IATA code, city, country, region, service type, a maximum price, and per-person versus per-group.
• get_service. One entry by id, with access rules, sources, and the booking link.
• list_airports. Every airport with a private terminal that is open or announced.
• compare_services. Two to five ids, side by side, with a note when the prices are not in the same currency or on the same basis.
• request_arrangement. Records a request to arrange an arrangeable terminal. Consent is required. No payment, and not a booking.

The same public facts are on the JSON API at /api/v1/services, also without a key. A Desk key, when Desk is open, raises the rate limit and adds a verified-within-14-days field.

A plain-text brief of the same facts is at /llms.txt, and the long form at /llms-full.txt. The server card is at /.well-known/mcp-server-card. What the server stores is on the privacy page.

Claude

In Claude, add a custom connector and paste the endpoint. No key. In Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http planeside https://planeside.flights/api/mcp

Or in the desktop config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "planeside": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://planeside.flights/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

In ChatGPT, add a custom app or connector and paste the endpoint. No key.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "planeside": {
      "url": "https://planeside.flights/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cursor

One click installs the server. Or add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "planeside": {
      "url": "https://planeside.flights/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Installs into VS Code as an HTTP MCP server. The same block belongs in .vscode/mcp.json.

{
  "servers": {
    "planeside": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://planeside.flights/api/mcp"
