Southwest
Automates Southwest Airlines through browser automation with Playwright, exposing the full booking lifecycle as MCP tools. You can search flights across fare classes, book with cash or Rapid Rewards points, check in exactly 24 hours before departure, grab boarding passes with your A/B/C position, and manage reservations without change fees. It handles Early Bird auto check-in, compares Wanna Get Away vs Business Select pricing, and queries your Rapid Rewards balance and Companion Pass progress. Stores Southwest login sessions locally to avoid repeated authentication. Useful when you need programmatic access to Southwest's systems for travel automation or building booking workflows, especially since Southwest doesn't offer a public API.
