Aviation & Flight MCP Servers — Flight Tracking, Booking, Weather, NOTAMs, and Pilot Tools

At a glance: Surprisingly well-populated with clear separation between consumer flight search and professional aviation tools. Flight search is the strongest segment, and pilot-focused weather tools are a standout niche. 15+ servers. Rating: 3.5/5.

Flight Tracking

sunsetcoder/flightradar24-mcp-server (46 stars, JavaScript, MIT) — Community-built real-time Flightradar24 tracker: live flights, arrival/departure times, airport status, emergency alerts. No API key required (uses unofficial data).

Flightradar24/fr24api-mcp (14 stars, TypeScript, MIT) — Official Flightradar24 server with 13 tools: live positions, historical data back to 2016, flight summaries, airline/airport info, filtering by callsign/registration/route/aircraft type.

Pradumnasaraf/aviationstack-mcp (17 stars, Python, MIT) — 12 tools covering flights, schedules, aircraft types, airlines, airports, routes, and even aviation taxes. The broadest aviation reference server.

sragss/flight-mcp (4 stars, JavaScript) — ADS-B Exchange tracking with military aircraft monitoring. ADS-B Exchange is unfiltered — doesn't hide military/government aircraft at operator request.

variflight/variflight-mcp (22 stars, TypeScript) — Chinese aviation data with a unique "flight happiness index" comfort metric, airport weather, transfer info, and itinerary pricing.

Flight Search & Booking

ravinahp/flights-mcp (169 stars, Python, MIT) — The most popular aviation MCP server. Real bookable fares via Duffel API: one-way, round-trip, multi-city, flexible dates, contextual memory across searches.

donghyun-chae/mcp-amadeus (50 stars, Python, MIT) — Amadeus GDS integration: flight offers search with cabin class, non-stop, and price filters. Same data travel agents use.

arjunprabhulal/mcp-flight-search (40 stars, Python, MIT) — Google Flights data via SerpAPI for price comparison.

manohar42/google-flights-mcp-server (9 tools) — The only MCP server covering the complete flight journey: Google Flights search → Duffel booking → seat maps → payment → status tracking.

Aviation Weather & Pilot Tools

blevinstein/aviation-mcp (6 stars, JavaScript/TypeScript, MIT) — Professional aviation data from FAA sources. Weather: METAR, TAF, PIREP, SIGMET, G-AIRMET. Charts: sectional, TAC, IFR enroute, terminal procedures. NOTAMs: FAA NOTAM API with extensive filtering. The standout server for actual pilots.

finack/aviation-mcp (2 stars, TypeScript, MIT) — Aviation weather from aviationweather.gov with a useful route weather tool — get conditions along an entire planned route.

What's Missing

  • No FlightAware or OpenSky Network servers
  • No airline-specific APIs (United, Delta, etc.)
  • No TSA/security wait times or baggage tracking
  • No airport lounge finders
  • No carbon offset calculation
  • No flight simulator integration (MSFS, X-Plane)
  • No drone/UAV airspace tools

Rating: 3.5/5 — Strong flight tracking and fare search with genuine professional aviation tools. The Duffel-powered booking workflow and FAA weather/NOTAM access are standout features. Missing major platforms (FlightAware, OpenSky) and no airline-specific integrations keep it from a higher rating.
