Alternative to TripIt = TripWaffle

[RooFlyer]

@tripwaffle , wonder what you think of this idea. Along the top of each day (ie in line with day, date, flags etc) you enable a drop-down 'Notes' box, where random notes relating the day can be quickly entered - number of steps taken; withdrew US$500 with Wise card; bought E75.27 fuel @ E1.95/l ; security took >1 hour at JFK; and so on.

Would be a bit more clutter, so maybe have option to turn off 'Daily notes'

Could I please get an answer how to manually update time zone as it's currentlty telling me my flight duration is around 30 hours.

Interesting idea. We recently added "Other > Note" as an event type...



Which may work for your scenario, or possibly too many clicks to get to? Have a play and let me know your thoughts.

Looks like you beat me to it- setting both airports and times resolved this.

Investigating further... that multi-leg itinerary import from email identified a bad IANA timezone for that particular flight. Additional checks have been added to catch/correct this in the future.

Thanks for the report.

I had a single booking with 12 segments, 6 in February/March and 6 In August/September. It had been set up in tripwaffle splitting into two separate trips with other nested bookings.

The first part has been travelled.

After received an airline schedule change for August flights a new ticket was created. The confirmation e-ticket contained all 12 segments, including those flown.

I sent this off to tripwaffle and it happily modified the Feb/Mar trip, adding the August segments makings 200 day trip. The existing Aug/Sep trip in my account (where the schedule changes were) was untouched.

I now have a mess to clean up ...

Is there a setting in Trip Waffle to not try to import emails into existing / new trips but have them all sent to an unassociated area when I can manually drag and drop items into their relevant trip.

I use such a setting with Tripit.

I'll look into this further, but in the meantime have you found the "reorganize" tool (bottom of the dashboard)? Makes it very quick to drag and drop events between trips.
