Trip Planning

Use the Trip Timeline

The Trip Timeline shows travel bookings, accommodation check-ins and check-outs, meetings, and tasks with due dates in chronological order, grouped by day.

Use the Trip Timeline

The Trip Timeline shows all time-anchored events for a trip in chronological order, grouped by day. It gives you a single view of when things are happening across travel, accommodation, meetings, and tasks.

What Appears in the Timeline

Event Type Source
Travel Departure Travel Bookings — departure date and time
Travel Arrival Travel Bookings — arrival date and time
Accommodation Check-In Accommodation — check-in date
Accommodation Check-Out Accommodation — check-out date
Meeting Meetings — scheduled date and time
Task Due Tasks — due date

Events without a date or time do not appear in the timeline.

Building the Timeline

The timeline is built automatically from the data you add to the trip. To populate it:

  • Add travel bookings with departure and arrival times
  • Add accommodation with check-in and check-out dates
  • Schedule meetings with dates and times
  • Add tasks with due dates

An empty timeline means none of these records have been added yet, or none have dates assigned.

Reading the Timeline

Days are separated by a horizontal divider with the date label. Within each day, events are listed in time order. Each event shows:

  • A time (or no time if only a date was recorded)
  • A colour-coded dot indicating the event type
  • The event title

Colour coding:

  • Blue — travel departures and arrivals
  • Purple — accommodation check-ins and check-outs
  • Green — meetings
  • Yellow — task due dates
