Plan a trip with your crew
Start by creating a trip and inviting the people coming along. From there you can gather ideas: ask MyBot for suggestions, pull in things to do, or add your own. Put the shortlist to a vote so everyone can pick what they love, then build the winners into one shared itinerary the whole group can see and shape.
Every collaborator can add options, cast votes, and follow along as the plan takes shape. When you are ready, share the itinerary so everyone stays on the same page from booking through the trip itself.
Privacy & security
We keep authentication tokens in secure HttpOnly cookies and use short-lived JWTs for the API. Trips are only visible to the people you invite. You can reset tokens and revoke crews at any time from the Account page.
Planning data lives in the region closest to your collaborators. All exports (including calendar files) happen inside your browser so you stay in control of what is shared externally.
Crews & collaboration
Crews centralise itineraries, PairMatch comparisons, and shared notes. Use crews when you want to keep more than two people aligned. Each member can run their own searches; favourites and saved trips stay personal unless you choose to share them.
Discussion lives alongside the plan: every trip and crew has a chat, and posts in the feed support comments, so the conversation stays in the same workspace as your planning tools.
PairMatch playbook
PairMatch is an optional side mode for two travellers who want to coordinate quickly. Start by ranking destinations, pick your preferred weekend bias, and let the comparison lab guide your conversation. You can export the outcomes into the trip planner and keep iterating together.
When the Pair Priority Alignment score reaches 0.7 or higher you have a strong overlap. Use the bonding prompts in the lab rounds to turn that alignment into a concrete itinerary.
Frequently asked questions
How do I plan a trip with my group?
Create a trip, invite your crew, and gather ideas together. Ask MyBot for suggestions or add your own, put the options to a vote so everyone can pick their favourites, then build the winners into a shared itinerary you can all see and shape.
How does PairMatch compatibility work?
PairMatch is an optional side mode for two travellers who want to compare wish lists one-on-one. It blends each traveller's ranked destinations with shared interests. The Pair Priority Alignment score reflects how closely your wish lists overlap, while weekend bias nudges suggestions toward the departures that work best for both of you.
What data is stored when I create or share a trip?
When you are signed in, trips are saved to your account as soon as you create them, so they follow you across devices and your collaborators see the same plan. A trip started as a guest lives only in that browser until you sign in or create an account. We store the title, dates, summary, and itinerary blocks needed to plan together, and flight confirmation numbers are stripped before a trip is saved. Sensitive notes and links stay in your control.
Can I invite non-members to collaborate?
It depends on the tool. Inviting someone to a persistent Crew requires them to already have a LetsPickaTrip account — the crew invite is bound to an existing member, so a brand-new email cannot be added. To bring in someone who has not signed up yet, start a Crew Trip and share its join link: they can create an account as they accept and jump straight into planning together.
Where do search prices come from?
Search uses live provider data wherever it is configured — flights and hotels through Amadeus, plus events and places from their respective providers — and shows a clearly labelled estimate when live pricing is not available for a result. Totals are shown in your preferred currency, and you should always confirm the final price with the provider before booking.
