Trip - Plans

TL;DR

Your Trip is organized as a table where plans are rows, ordered by day and time. Filter, group, and customize the view to manage your itinerary effectively. Click a day for map highlight, or a row for details.

Your Trip is organized as a table. Each plan is a row, sorted first by day (date and label), then by plan time.

The plans will have different level of informations based on your information when creating it (see Trip - Plan creation). e.g.

A plan
A plan with a status dot indicator, an attachments indicator and a Place

The table supports various interactions, through the actions bar at the top or by clicking either a day cell or a row.

tip

For accommodations and transport, I recommend using a double-entry approach similar to accounting:

  • Create one plan for the start (e.g., 00:01)
  • Create another plan for the end (e.g., 23:59)

This helps you:

  • Differentiate 'From' and 'To' locations easily
  • Track nights at accommodations accurately
  • Show continuous presence at a location across days using coordinates
