Free-plan limits
Only the flights endpoint works on the free tier. airports, airlines, cities, countries, routes return HTTP 403 function_access_restricted. Upgrade to Basic (~$50/mo) to unlock them. Free plan is HTTP-only (no https) — the pack already uses http://.
Data source
http://api.aviationstack.com/v1/ — access_key query param.
Quick Start
Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"aviationstack": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/aviationstack/mcp"
}
}
}
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 1394+ data sources:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pipeworx": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
}
}
}
Using with ask_pipeworx
Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:
ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Aviationstack data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
