Short answer
SkyMatch publishes an authenticated MCP server so travel advisors, DMCs, hotel concierges, executive assistants, family offices and yacht teams — and the AI assistants they work inside — can search published helicopter corridors, structure a journey, preview exactly what the concierge desk would receive, and only then send a real flight request. Reads are free and safe; sending a request is an explicit, confirmed, rate-limited action.
How an assistant should use it
Read first, submit last. `preview_flight_request` is a dry run that writes nothing and contacts no operator. `create_charter_request` is the only commercial action and requires confirm: true. SkyMatch does not own or operate helicopters and publishes no numeric price estimates; aircraft, landing permission, timing and price are confirmed by the third-party operating company.

This preview runs in your browser using the same journey logic as the live tool. It sends nothing, contacts no operator and creates no request.

Landing permission at Courchevel Altiport needs site-owner and authority approval and typically 3–10 working days to answer. Aircraft availability is constrained: 1 light helicopter for this party and luggage. A realistic booking window is 31+ days before departure, and under about 8 days it becomes a short-notice request. Planning estimate only. SkyMatch is a helicopter charter broker and matching platform and does not operate aircraft. Aircraft availability, price, landing approval and final go/no-go are confirmed by the licensed operating company, and every flight remains subject to weather, safety rules, landing permissions and local regulations."

A ski-season transfer for four guests with heavy luggage, arranged by an advisor for their client. The assistant reads, previews, asks the client, and only then submits.
1. search_routes { "query": "Nice", "limit": 5 }
→ published corridor: Nice → Courchevel (indicative flight time only)
2. preview_flight_request { "origin": "Nice (NCE)", "destination": "Courchevel altiport",
"depart_date": "2026-02-14", "passengers": 4,
"baggage": "heavy", "booking_for_client": true }
→ PREVIEW_ONLY, submitted: false
→ human_concierge_review: recommended (heavy baggage, altiport landing site)
→ information_still_needed: preferred departure window, contact route
3. ask the client to confirm — the assistant must not submit on its own
4. create_charter_request { ...same journey, "preferred_time": "09:30",
"company_name": "Riviera Travel Studio",
"contact_name": "Claire Dubois",
"contact_phone": "+33 6 12 34 56 78",
"confirm": true }
→ request received by the SkyMatch concierge desk
→ status: REQUESTED — no aircraft, permission, timing or price is confirmed
5. get_request_status { "request_id": "req_8f1c2a" }
→ desk progress only, scoped to your own accountNo. Only create_charter_request with confirm: true does anything commercial, and even that creates a request for the human concierge desk — not a booking. Aircraft, landing permission, timing and price are confirmed by the third-party operating company.
Yes. Set booking_for_client: true and company_name, and the desk works the request with you as the professional of record.
It structures the journey and returns an indicative planning outlook — landing-permission band, availability pressure and booking-window verdict — plus assumptions, limitations and the fields still missing before operators can be approached. It is a planning estimate, not an availability check.
No. Requests are row-level scoped to the signed-in account, so list_my_requests and get_request_status only ever return your own requests.
