FlightQueue
Airport security wait times, forecasts, FAA delays, EES border queues and baggage stats.
Install
Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).
claude mcp add --transport http flightqueue 'https://mcp.flightqueue.com/mcp'{
"mcpServers": {
"flightqueue": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://mcp.flightqueue.com/mcp"

forecasts, FAA delays, EU Entry/Exit System border queues, lounges, terminals, aviation
weather, and airline baggage performance for 8,000+ airports.
Nothing to install. Point any MCP-compatible client at the hosted URL.

Sign-in
OAuth 2.1 with PKCE. Your client runs the flow on first use and you sign in with a Flight Queue account. There is no anonymous access and no API-key header.
A free account reaches 19 of the 22 tools. A premium plan unlocks forecasts, history and the live feed.

Skills
The skills/ folder has agent skills that tell an assistant which tools to call, in
which order, for common travel questions. Claude Code and Codex load them with the plugin.
| Skill | Use it for |
|---|---|
flightqueue-trip-day | When to leave for the airport: best arrival time, queue, delays, weather, terminal, lounge |
flightqueue-ees-schengen | EES border queues now and in 24h, and the Schengen 90/180-day check |
flightqueue-compare-airports | Which airport to fly from: waits, delays and weekly patterns side by side |
flightqueue-baggage | Carry-on and checked-bag rules, and which airlines lose the fewest bags |
flightqueue-crowd-reports | Read traveller wait reports, and share a wait only with the user's consent |
Ask it things like
- "What is the security wait at JFK right now?"
- "I have an 8am flight from ORD tomorrow, when should I arrive?"
- "Are there any FAA ground stops today?"
- "How long is the EES border queue at Lisbon?"
- "Which airline loses the fewest checked bags?"
