About Amadeus MCP Server
Amadeus MCP Server is a community-developed MCP server that searches flights through the Amadeus Flight Offers Search API. It is intended for users of MCP-compatible clients such as Claude Desktop who want to query flights with natural language. The project is built on the official amadeus-python SDK and is not affiliated with Amadeus IT Group.
Key features
- 01Flight search via Amadeus Flight Offers Search API
- 02Search by origin, destination and travel date
- 03Filters for return date, cabin class and non-stop flights
- 04Returns airline, times, duration and pricing as JSON
Use cases
- 01Asking an AI assistant for flight options between two cities

🚀 Quick Start
Installing via Smithery
To install Amadeus MCP Server for Claude Desktop automatically via Smithery:
npx -y @smithery/cli install @donghyun-chae/mcp-amadeus --client claude
1. Clone and Setup
git clone https://github.com/donghyun-chae/mcp-amadeus.git
cd mcp-amadeus-flight-offers
# Install dependencies (using uv or pip)
uv sync
2. Get Your API Key and Set Environment
cp .env.example .env
Then edit .env and add your API credentials:
AMADEUS_CLIENT_ID=your_client_id
AMADEUS_CLIENT_SECRET=your_client_secret
Sign up on https://developers.amadeus.com/ and create an app to obtain your Client ID and Client Secret.
3. Configure MCP Client
Register this server in your MCP client (e.g., Claude for Desktop).
Edit ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"amadeus": {
"command": "/ABSOLUTE/PATH/TO/PARENT/FOLDER/uv",
"args": [
"--directory",
"/ABSOLUTE/PATH/TO/PARENT/FOLDER/src/",
"run",
"--env-file",
"/ABSOLUTE/PATH/TO/PARENT/FOLDER/.env",
"server.py"
]
}
}
}
Replace
/ABSOLUTE/PATH/TO/PARENT/FOLDER/with the actual path to your project folder.
my case:
{
"mcpServers": {
"amadeus": {
"command": "/Users/asena/.local/bin/uv",
"args": [
"--directory",
"/Users/asena/mcp-amadeus/src/",
"run",
"--env-file",
"/Users/asena/mcp-amadeus/.env",
"server.py"
]
}
}
}

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
