Gondola MCP Server

The travel MCP that shows cash and award rates side by side. Search hotels, flights, and rental cars across every major hotel chain and loyalty program - with cents-per-point valuations, loyalty balance tracking, rate alerts, and direct booking - right from your AI client. It is available as a remote MCP endpoint.

Teams that want a hosted endpoint instead of running a local process. The project is written in JavaScript.
