Free planning system
One trip. Eight better prompts.
Start with constraints, not recommendations. Work through the prompts in order, then verify anything that can change before you book.
Use AI to organize the trip. Use official providers to confirm schedules, entry rules, prices, and reservations.
01Build the trip brief+
“Ask me the essential questions about dates, airports, budget, pace, interests, mobility needs, and confirmed bookings before planning anything.”
02Compare the routes+
“Propose three route options. Show nights per city, transfer days, fatigue points, and the tradeoffs behind your recommendation.”
03Stress-test transfers+
“Add checkout, airport buffers, immigration, baggage collection, ground transportation, and check-in to every transfer day.”
04Group each day+
“Plan each day by neighborhood with one anchor activity, two nearby options, meal areas, transit time, and a low-energy alternative.”
05Choose the right base+
“Compare three neighborhoods for airport access, transit, evening food, noise, and travel time to the planned activities.”
06Budget in ranges+
“Estimate low, expected, and high costs for transport, stays, food, activities, connectivity, insurance, and a 10% contingency.”
07Verify live details+
“Search the web and cite official sources for schedules, entry rules, routes, opening hours, prices, and seasonal closures.”
08Create the action plan+
“Separate confirmed bookings, open decisions, reserve-now items, 72-hour checks, and the final day-by-day itinerary.”
