ORGANIZING TRAVEL DETAILS

[imbues]

This is a really cool site for those with complicated travel plans.

Tripit

A tidy, paperless way to keep track of everything from flight reservations to OpenTable dinner plans, this site extracts travel details from the booking confirmations that you forward by e-mail, then organizes them all on a private Web page. Bonus: it automatically adds trip-specific SeatGuru tips, weather reports and Google Maps.

Thanks Imbues - this looks really handy! I might try it for my next trip and see how well it works....

Do you ever wonder who else has access to this type of information when you openly place some potentially confidential information in the hands of hackers?

Hi travel2fun,

I understand your concerns, but I don't think hackers want to know my travel plans in detail. Perhaps some here do have to worry about security, but I'm not in that category. I also don't worry about it because more information is stolen from mail boxes than on the net.

I checked out the site. Very interesting! I was trying to figure out though if you could link in a group of people. One of the things that is really tough to do - for me at least - is coordinating group trips with various people from various cities all meeting at a single location. Everyone needs to know everyone else's info for meeting at airports, transport to hotel, etc.... I was thinking this site provided the solution but - and I may just be slow - I can't seem to figure it out. Did I miss something or is that correct?

Hi maylinglai,

The only option I can think of is to share access to your account with your group. After the rtip you can change your password for security.
