POST to `https://mcp.kiwi.com` itself. `/mcp` returns 404, and responses arrive as `text/event-stream` even for a single reply\n2. Send dates as dd/mm/yyyy and set `currency`, which defaults to EUR\n3. Check the `error` field of every result. A rejected input returns `resultsCount` 0 with `isError` false\n4. Narrow with `price_to`, `max_sector_stopovers` and `sort`. There is no limit parameter and each search returns 15 itineraries\n5. Give the user `bookingUrl` to book. Don't call `feedback-to-devs` with user data, because it sends free text to Kiwi.com\n\n### LiteAPI (Nuitee Connect)\n\n1. Use `/hotels/rates` with a short `hotelIds` list from `/data/hotels`; a broad rates call is slow and large\n2. Always prebook before book and read the cancellation policy in the prebook response, since refundability differs per rate\n3. Send a unique `clientReference` on book; a repeat returns error 4005 instead of a second booking\n4. Set `margin` explicitly on every rates call. Zero means net rates with no commission to you\n5. Send the key to the MCP in an `X-Api-Key` header rather than `?apiKey=` where the client allows it\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Kiwi.com MCP Server or LiteAPI (Nuitee Connect)?\n\nLiteAPI (Nuitee Connect) scores 53.1 (D) on agent readiness against Kiwi.com MCP Server's 51.9 (D), and leads in 4 of 7 scored categories. Kiwi.com MCP Server leads on security \u0026 auth, payments \u0026 pricing and transparency \u0026 trust.\n\n### Do Kiwi.com MCP Server and LiteAPI (Nuitee Connect) need an API key?\n\nKiwi.com MCP Server needs no key. LiteAPI (Nuitee Connect) needs an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call Kiwi.com MCP Server and LiteAPI (Nuitee Connect) without installing anything?\n\nYes.
