Love it more. I was wondering how to collapse the whole trip - this is a nice bit of design thinking!

So clicking on an individual day at the top takes you to a day-only view in detail. Brilliant.

(Bit cramped on a phone, but that's life on a small screen ...)

Also like the re-designed widgets at the top with visa, power etc. What's your source of info for the visa requirements, please?

Cheers, it will continue to evolve no doubt.

Visa source = passportindex.org

Visa source = passportindex.org

Hadn't come across that before (I mainly use Sherpa) - good stuff in the reports / policy /lifestyle sections, too.

Just FYI: Like most sites, it doesn't handle the subtleties of many situations - an Australian pax arriving on a cruise to Algeria (and many other similar places where a visa is needed) can get a visa on arrival, rather than need a full visa. I need a full visa for the USA (can't get ESTA, or ETA as that site calls it) as I've visited one of their 'naughty' countries (Iran).

Would you want to put it 'Most situations: ' (recognising that will bring some clutter etc).

Have changed the header to "COMMON ENTRY". Probably about as much of a disclaimer as needed imho,
Would love to visit Iran one day- so much history, and lovely people from what I've heard.

Good call. I worked in Somalia (another ‘naughty’ country) for several years and also need a visa to enter USA

As always, just shout if anything could be better.

Will there be a widget for android devices?

Will there be a widget for android devices?

Yes- what do you envision for it? In my mind it shows basic details for current/upcoming trip events. Curious what others would want from it.

Feature request please: Ability to add/link a second email address to Tripwaffle profile.

Rationale: I've forward an upcoming trip from my work email and it doesn't match/upload because my tripwaffle profile is based on my personal email address.

A work around is to email from work -> personal -> tripwaffle, but sending direct would be simpler.

Thanks for your ongoing responsiveness (I can think of an airline or ten who could learn a thing or two from your approach).

Add multiple aliases here: TripWaffle - Travel planning, fixed. (settings > email aliases)

The way it works at the moment: the first time we receive an email from an address we don't recognise, sender will get an auto-response offering to link that email address with whatever account user is currently logged-in as.

Hope this makes sense, but please yell if any issues of course.
