Book a Munich to London flight (didn't finish)
The user asked an AI agent to book a flight from Munich to London; it searched the airline site but couldn't complete the booking. Task: Suggested implementation: An AI agent attempts to book a Munich-to-London flight for the 25th. It uses Google Flights to identify options, then tries to complete purchases via airline and travel sites. The agent is blocked by British Airways, Lufthansa, easyJet, Kayak, Skyscanner, and Expedia, with Kiwi’s MCP server being the only accessible route. Human involvement is required to finalize bookings where automated access fails.; tools: custom-built or unnamed agent. Human role: Source evidence is unavailable regarding specific human roles or actions taken during this attempt.; limitations: Prerequisites include access to flight aggregator APIs and MCP servers. Key constraints are anti-bot measures (CAPTCHA, identity verification) that prevent automated completion on major airline and travel sites. Source reliability is low as the original post is inaccessible (HTTP 403). Human approval is mandatory for final payment and passenger data entry..

Overview
The user asked an AI agent to book a flight from Munich to London; it searched the airline site but couldn't complete the booking.
Workflow
Suggested implementation: An AI agent attempts to book a Munich-to-London flight for the 25th. It uses Google Flights to identify options, then tries to complete purchases via airline and travel sites. The agent is blocked by British Airways, Lufthansa, easyJet, Kayak, Skyscanner, and Expedia, with Kiwi’s MCP server being the only accessible route. Human involvement is required to finalize bookings where automated access fails.
Reported result
The booking was not completed. The agent failed to reach the passenger-details page on standard booking sites due to blocks or challenges. The only successful step was retrieving 15 flight options via Kiwi’s MCP server. No actual purchase or confirmation occurred.
Human role
Source evidence is unavailable regarding specific human roles or actions taken during this attempt.
Limitations
Prerequisites include access to flight aggregator APIs and MCP servers. Key constraints are anti-bot measures (CAPTCHA, identity verification) that prevent automated completion on major airline and travel sites. Source reliability is low as the original post is inaccessible (HTTP 403). Human approval is mandatory for final payment and passenger data entry.
Try it
Act as a travel booking assistant. I need to find flight options for a trip from Munich to London on the 25th. First, use a flight aggregator API (e.g., Kiwi MCP) to retrieve available flights. Output a list of the top 5 options with prices, airlines, and times. Do not attempt to bypass CAPTCHAs or impersonate humans on airline websites. If automated booking is blocked, stop and present the options to me for manual booking. Confirm the date and route before proceeding. If the API fails, report the error and suggest alternative search methods. I will handle the final payment and passenger details.
