在过去的几个月中,我们听到了许多不仅错过旅行的用户的消息,而且他们错过了planningtravel.
根据康奈尔大学的说法学习, the anticipation of a trip can increase your happiness substantially, even more than the anticipation of acquiring something tangible, like a new car. And while we don’t know when travel restrictions will be lifted, we do know that we want to feel prepared to get back on the road when the time comes—and that using TripIt helps spark some joy along the way.
What you can do now:
- 抵消过去的航班。TripIt’s Carbon Footprint feature makes it easy to see, track, and offset your carbon footprint. Non-profit organizations like the Gold Standard vet and recommend high-quality carbon offset projects you can donate to. Check out their current projectshere—or sign up for Jet-Set Offset, which will automatically offset flights for you. Learn morehere。
- Save itineraries to help you plan。Rather than deleting trips you were unable to take, keep them in your TripIt itinerary to help you remember the locations you had planned visiting, the restaurants you’d still like to experience and the activities you want to check off your list.
- Monitor price drops on future planned travel。Many airlines have minimized change and cancellation penalties in the event that travel restrictions change. If you’ve booked future travels, TripIt’s Fare Tracker, available with a TripIt Pro subscription, will alert you if you’re eligible for a refund or credit if your airfare drops after you book.
- Track loyalty programs.因为大多数旅行者兼顾多个忠诚account (each with its own username), TripIt offers an easy way to stay aware of your award programs, displaying balances, history, expiration dates, and status level. For programs that havemodified their balance expiration policies,任何修订后的到期日期也反映在Tripit中。
- Organize in case of an emergency.确保您拥有紧急联系人和所有重要文件,包括护照,签证,驾驶执照,以及您的旅行加急服务的详细信息,例如您已知的旅行者号码,TSA Precheck,Clear或Global Groment Infort。
- 做好准备。您现在已经有时间了,因此,如果您打算进行国际旅行,请确保您能够加快抵达时可能需要的一切。雷竞技app官方下载Tripit Pro的国际旅行工具提供特定国家 /地区的信息,包括疫苗接种,使馆信息,签证要求,紧急电话号码等。
- Know the Safety Score of your frequented destinations.Search past trips in TripIt for locations that you frequent to stay on top of Health & Medical in Neighborhood Safety Scores (COVID-19 is included in the scoring).
Getting prepared based on the “knowns” is just one side of the travel coin, however. Equally important is为未知数做准备- 我们目前在Tripit上关注的事情。我们问自己,什么需要商务旅行者,休闲旅行者和家庭可能会有什么,以及他们可能会有所不同。那可访问性呢?国际旅行者?我们如何创新解决方案或为旅行者提供他们为他们做出最佳决策所需的信息?寄宿,安全,卫生,文件 - 这些问题是我们团队的前列和中心。同时,Tripit已经提供了几个功能来帮助减轻未知数。
When you travel again:
- 安全checks may take longer and require more steps. Aviation marketing consultancy SimpliFlying recently predicted challenges that may arise for both travelers — like needing to arrive four or more hours ahead of a flight to go through the necessary checks — and airlines, “Enhanced cleaning regimes could spell the end of the 30-minute turnaround, upon which many low-cost carriers base much of their business model.” TripIt Pro includes security wait times at select airports to help you plan and prepare for the changes these new policies will have on security lines.
- As more flights become available, there may be frequent gate and timing changes. TripIt Pro keeps you up-to-date with alerts for flight and gate changes.
- Share your travel plans with family or friendsso they always know where you are. Just click the share icon on your itinerary to通过文字或电子邮件分享您的旅行计划。不再复制和粘贴有关您何时到达或留在哪里的详细信息。您还可以在三座行程中选择个人(或多个)旅行计划,并通过文本,Slack,WhatsApp或您喜欢的消息传递应用程序发送它们。
Travel will return, and when it does, the TripIt team is making sure you have what you need to be prepared to do so. Until then, a little future travel planning might help fill the void in your calendar—and some有趣的变焦背景might bring some joy.
