Verdicts

FlightClaw

Hosted MCP at mcp.flightclaw.com/mcp with OAuth 2.1, PKCE and dynamic client registration, no API keys. Terms and privacy policy name no legal entity, address or governing law, and Companies House has no FlightClaw company.

Odessia

Odessia is a free travel concierge that books as a registered travel agent, watches prices and award seats, and keeps a public status page with a clean record since July. No outside agent can call it, standing authorisations let it pay without asking each time, and no changelog was found.

Before you call either

FlightClaw

  1. Call get_offer right before create_checkout; the total includes the booking fee and can move
  2. Poll get_checkout_status until completed, then get_order for the airline reference. A sent link isn't a booking
  3. Never ask for card numbers in chat. Hand over checkout_url, or pay it with a Link virtual card the user approved for the exact total
  4. Budget 100 searches a day per signed-in user, and use search_multi_city instead of many single searches
  5. Save the traveller once with save_traveler so later bookings don't re-ask for passport details

Odessia

  1. Don't plan to call Odessia from another agent. It answers only its signed-in owner on the web, by message or by email.
  2. Check whether the owner has set a standing authorisation before assuming a booking will wait for approval.

From $2,500, re-run included. We never take payment to move a rank. We do help companies earn one.
