Transport: Flights, Trains & Cars

Log flights, trains, car rentals, and cruises with departure and arrival endpoints, times, and transit-specific details.

Where to create

Open the Transports tab in the trip planner and click Add, or open the planner from a day view and use the transport shortcut. Transport records appear in the Reservations panel alongside other bookings.

Transport types

Four types are available: Flight, Train, Car, Cruise.

Common fields

All transport types share these fields:

Field	Notes
Title	Required
Departure day	Linked to a trip day
Departure time	Optional
Arrival day	Linked to a trip day (can differ from departure day)
Arrival time	Optional
Booking / confirmation code	Optional
Status	Pending or Confirmed
Notes	Optional free text

Endpoints

Flights

The departure and arrival fields use the Airport picker — type a city name or IATA code (minimum two characters) to search. Results show the IATA code, airport name, city, and country.

Once you select an airport, the timezone for that airport appears next to the time field. This lets you enter local departure and arrival times without confusion across time zones.

Trains, cars, and cruises

Departure and arrival fields use the generic location picker — search by place name or enter a free-text location. Results come from the maps search service.

For car rentals, the departure field is labelled Pickup date/time and the arrival field is labelled Return date/time.

Flight-specific fields

When the type is set to Flight, two additional fields appear:

• Airline — carrier name (e.g. Lufthansa)
• Flight number — (e.g. LH 123)

Train-specific fields

When the type is set to Train, three additional fields appear:

• Train number — (e.g. ICE 123)
• Platform — platform or track number
• Seat — seat or coach assignment

On the map

Transport records with both endpoints set appear as lines on the trip map:

• Flights and cruises render as geodesic great-circle curves that follow the curvature of the Earth.
• Trains and cars render as straight polylines between the two endpoints.

Confirmed bookings are drawn as solid lines; pending bookings use a dashed line. Endpoint markers are shown at each location. For flights, a midpoint label appears along the arc showing the route codes (e.g. ZRH → JFK) and flight duration and distance when enough screen space is available.

See Map-Features for details on how these overlays work.

In the day plan

When a transport is assigned to a day, it appears inline in the day timeline between places. Multi-day transports show phase labels depending on the type:

Type	Start day	Middle days	End day
Flight	Departure	In transit	Arrival
Car rental	Pickup	Active	Return
Train / Cruise	Start	Ongoing	End

See Day-Plans-and-Notes for details.
