Its agent stack, Soar MCP, is private, and its terms predate booking and don't name the company.\n\n**Travelport TripServices APIs.** Public OpenAPI 3.0 files, Markdown docs and an llms.txt cover search, pricing, booking, ticketing, exchanges and hotel stays, with dated release notes through August 2026. Production needs a sales contract and certification with 15 days' notice. No price, API rate limit, status page or SLA is published, and the terms bar automated tools without written permission.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Soar\n\n1. Don't plan to call Soar from another agent. Its MCP server needs private onboarding by the team.\n2. Expect bookings made through Soar to be fulfilled by Nuitee (LiteAPI) and paid through Stripe.\n\n### Travelport TripServices APIs\n\n1. Request one token and cache it for 24 hours. Travelport declines certification for refreshing more often than every 23 hours without a stated reason\n2. Send `Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate` and `XAUTH_TRAVELPORT_ACCESSGROUP` (or `TVP-PCC-CORE`) on every call. Production traffic without compression is refused\n3. Send `offersPerPage` on a journey-based search, or later calls can't reference its results. Cached searches last 12 minutes for GDS content and 34 for NDC\n4. Commit a workbench within 30 minutes or it expires, and read `Result/Error` in the body even on HTTP 200\n5. Get written authorisation for agent access before production. The terms bar automated tools and speculative or duplicate bookings\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Soar or Travelport TripServices APIs?\n\nTravelport TripServices APIs scores 45.9 (E) on agent readiness against Soar's 12.6 (F), and leads in 6 of 7 scored categories.\n\n### Can an agent call Soar and Travelport TripServices APIs without installing anything?\n\nNo hosted endpoint is listed for Soar.
