Flight search with Claude Code really works now
Flight search is such a drag. But with my find-flights skill, Claude Code absolutely nailed it for two complex itineraries I searched this weekend. It also did a good job for a third complex itinerary, but missed the best option.
This took a 1–2 hour task down to 10–20 minutes. Beautiful.

And a follow-up request:
For a separate test itinerary, I asked Claude to actually book the flights and hotels. The hotel booking went through great (I had to press “confirm” at the final step), but then Claude’s browser use slowed to a glacial pace due to Anthropic server capacity issues.
Browser use is really good now, except when Anthropic’s GPUs are melting.
