We built a BonjourRATP MCP App that brings journey planning into ChatGPT. Describe your trip, understand the options, and ask your next question in the same conversation.
Visitors can describe their trip in their own words, even when they do not know the Paris transport network.

Explained in your language
The LLM responds in the language of the conversation. It explains the returned results and uses the journey context to answer follow-up questions.
A route, then room for questions.
An English conversation with a visitor to Paris: first a journey from Opéra to Glacière, then a question about a line on that route.
01
Ask for a route. Understand the transfer.
The visitor gives a starting point and a destination. BonjourRATP returns route options, and ChatGPT explains which lines to take and where to change, in English.
I'm visiting Paris and I'm not familiar with the metro. Use BonjourRATP to find a route from Opéra to Glacière and explain where I need to change.

Bonjour RATP gives a simple route with one change:
• At Opéra, take Metro line 7 toward Mairie d'Ivry.
• Get off at Place d'Italie.
• At Place d'Italie, follow signs for Metro line 6 toward Charles de Gaulle–Étoile.
• Ride 2 stops: Corvisart, then Glacière.
So the only place you need to change is Place d'Italie. The transfer is inside the station and Bonjour RATP estimates roughly a 3-minute connection.
There are some notices on line 6 tonight, but the interruption starting at 22:00 concerns the Charles de Gaulle–Étoile/Kléber end of the line, so it does not affect the Place d'Italie → Glacière section of this journey.
In this session, ChatGPT explains the change from line 7 to line 6 at Place d’Italie, then the two stops to Glacière.
The visitor follows up about line 6 without repeating the origin and destination. ChatGPT checks BonjourRATP service information and explains it in the context of the proposed journey.
Are there any problems on metro line 6 that could affect this journey? Please check BonjourRATP and explain what they mean for my trip.

Bonjour RATP shows several notices for Metro line 6, but for your Place d’Italie → Glacière segment, the important point is that none currently blocks that part of the line.
Tonight, 25 September from 22:00, service is interrupted only between Charles de Gaulle–Étoile and Kléber for security measures. That is far west of your journey. You board line 6 at Place d’Italie and get off at Glacière, so this interruption should not affect you.
There is also a broader notice connected with events and some station closures elsewhere in Paris, plus future planned closures on 4, 11, and 18 October, but those do not affect this trip tonight.
So for your journey, you can still use line 7 to Place d’Italie, then line 6 to Glacière as planned.
At capture time, the notices included a closure between Charles de Gaulle–Étoile and Kléber. ChatGPT explains that it does not affect the Place d’Italie–Glacière segment of this journey.

The next question is part of the journey.
In the same conversation, the visitor can choose a ticket and understand how to use it.
Which ticket do I need?
BonjourRATP checks its catalog: in this session, a €2.55 Ticket Métro-Train-RER for one adult on this journey. This is the captured fare on 25 September 2026.
For this journey, which ticket should I buy and how much does it cost for one adult? Please use the BonjourRATP ticket catalog.
Complete ChatGPT reply · original text
For Opéra → Glacière, buy a Ticket Métro-Train-RER.
For one adult, the Bonjour RATP catalog price is €2.55.
It covers your full metro journey, including the change from line 7 to line 6 at Place d’Italie, as long as you stay inside the network and complete the trip within 2 hours.
Should I validate again at the transfer?
ChatGPT’s activity confirms that it consulted the BonjourRATP FAQ. The reply connects the validation rule to the transfer at Place d’Italie.
According to the official BonjourRATP FAQ, do I need to validate my ticket again when changing between metro lines on this journey?
Complete ChatGPT reply · original text
According to the official Bonjour RATP FAQ, you should validate whenever the network asks you to during a connection, but you will not be charged another ticket.
For your trip:
Opéra → line 7 → Place d’Italie → line 6 → Glacière
your Ticket Métro-Train-RER remains valid for the whole journey. Bonjour RATP says metro/train/RER connections are included for up to 2 hours.
At Place d’Italie, you normally just follow the signs for line 6. If there is a validation gate during the connection, validate the same ticket again. It does not consume a second €2.55 ticket.
Keep the conversation in your language.
BonjourRATP supplies the travel results; the LLM explains them in the language of the conversation. These Japanese and Arabic sessions show the same experience for other visitors.
أنا سائح في باريس ولا أعرف شبكة المترو. استخدم BonjourRATP للعثور على مسار من محطة أوبرا إلى محطة غلاسيير، واشرح أين أحتاج إلى تبديل الخط.
“I’m a tourist in Paris and don’t know the metro. Use BonjourRATP to find a route from Opéra to Glacière and explain where to change.”
Complete ChatGPT reply · original text
بحسب Bonjour RATP، أبسط مسار بالمترو هو:
• من Opéra خذ الخط 7 باتجاه Mairie d'Ivry.
• انزل في Place d'Italie.
• هناك بدّل إلى الخط 6 باتجاه Charles de Gaulle–Étoile.
• انزل بعد محطتين في Glacière.
إذن لديك تبديل واحد فقط، في Place d'Italie. يوجد اضطراب حالي على جزء آخر من الخط 6 بين Charles de Gaulle–Étoile وKléber، لكنه لا يقع على الجزء الذي ستستخدمه بين Place d'Italie و Glacière.
An Arabic request brings up the same route-planning experience, followed by an Arabic explanation from ChatGPT.
