Mark a flight or hotel as booked

If you have already booked a flight or a hotel, tell OffYaGo. Planning then treats it as fixed: your days start and end around the flights, and each booked hotel keeps its nights. You type in what is on your ticket or confirmation. The app doesn't read your email, look anything up on a booking site, sell anything or show prices.

A flight

1. Open Auto-plan my trip. Under the dates in "Before we plan", tap Add your flight under your landing, or under your flight home.
2. Fill in the flight number (optional), the airports, and the date and time each end prints on your ticket, local to that airport. Add a connection if you have one.
3. Choose Keeping it or Free to change under "Can you change it for free?", and add what you paid or your booking reference if you like.
4. Tap Save.

The sheet says "Copy the times from your ticket." because the app can't look a flight up. The first or last day of the trip then follows your ticket, and a booked flight home fixes the trip's length: the row reads "Your flight home is on 22 Mar."

A hotel

1. Open the trip's Where you sleep page and tap Mark as booked under a base.
2. The base's chosen hotel is filled in. Otherwise search for it by name, or type its address and move the map until the pin sits on your hotel.
3. Give the check-in date and the number of nights, say whether you can change it for free (and until when), and add a booking reference if you like.
4. Tap Save.

A booked base reads "Booked" with the hotel's name and address. Edit booking and Remove booking change it.

Paste to fill

Both sheets have a Paste button. Copy your confirmation first. The app reads it on your phone, fills in only what is still empty and marks those fields "from your paste". Nothing is sent anywhere, and your pasted text is never stored.

Your booking reference

Where it shows

• Confirm order draws each booked hotel as a locked row, such as "Booked · Florence · 3 nights · 12–15 Mar". Areas can be reordered only between two stays.
• The trip screen has a line under the ticket in three parts: hotels ("2 of 4 hotels", or "No hotels") opens Where you sleep; flights ("Flights booked", or "No flights") opens How you move; tickets opens Your tickets.
• How you move shows your booked flight under the trip's first or last flight, with Edit flight and Remove flight. With none booked, the flight shows Add your flight. This works on a planned trip too, when Re-plan doesn't open "Before we plan".
• The PDF lists the hotel's address and phone and the flight's number and times.
• Trip mates see your bookings but none of the buttons to change them.

If a booking can't fit, for example a hotel that falls outside the trip's dates, the app says so and doesn't save it. Next: Re-plan, Start over and new dates for a booking.
