TripIt Online Itinerary Planner

Hi,

Was browsing looking for templates to make my own itinerary for an upcoming trip and came across this site TripIt | Organize your travel which allows you to make an online itinerary for flights, hotels, car rentals. I must admit it is one of the most exciting web sites I have seen in a long while.
It can automatically create your itinerary just by forwarding your confirmation (certain companies only) to the email address for the site. I just tried it with a confirmation from Hawaiian Airlines and Expedia and all details were automatically updated into my itinerary with 2 minutes.
You can also create itinerary items manually, share with friends, add maps and directions.
It was launched July 30th and is still in Beta atm but the potential is fantastic.

Check it out

Colin

Well, it's now July 2008 and this site seems to be doing well. I have just thrown away about a kg of paperwork thanks to the program. I had printed every email from every booking for a six week trip across the USA. With this program I was able to fill all the details of every booking and event - booking numbers, price of hotels - as much or as little information as you like can be entered. With flights, you enter the flight number and the program 'finds' the flight and gives you all the information including updates when you go back in to look, and a button to click on to print your boarding passes. You can print the whole itinerary (I did, back to back). You can also at any time go to your itinerary, saved on the site, and check it, change it, print boarding passes, etc. Thumbs up from me!!

It will be OK so long as the site stays alive.
Web sites come
Web sites die and are never seen again.
Nothing is better than keeping your own copies on important information

I did use this last year on one occassion though I must confess that I'd forgotten that it existed. My details from last Nov are still there.

I have been using Mobimate's Worldmate Live for the past couple of months (the free one not the premium one). Not only do they provide an online itinerary web site but they also have software for Windows Mobile Devices and Blackberry devices, allowing you to sync to your PDA or phone.

Works for me...mzy

I think this happens regularly with websites used for storing digital photos.
