I've tried creating my own trips and working around it, but in the end since I have all these flights on 1 itinerary it still thinks it's one big trip.
Does anyone else that uses TripIt have any ideas on this? Their support is weak and there doesn't appear to be any TripIt help forums.
To give you an example of my issue, here are the details.
LAX - DEN Jul 18
DEN - BOS Jul 21
BOS - DEN Jul 25
DEN - LAX Jul 29
This should work out to be 3 separate trips. Den 18-21, Bos 21-25 and Den 25-29 but I can't get it to split that flight itinerary into 3. It just thinks I'm in Denver 18-29.
I'm not sure what you want the definition of "trip" to be here. It looks to me like a single trip with stops in DEN, BOS, DEN. You can certainly move records out of one trip into another but I'm not sure how that helps or makes things clearer. What function are you missing by it being one trip? TripIt will still have all the flights, hotels, cars, etc. plus any other things you add. Also, if you have added lodging TripIt will id that day as in the city of the lodging for things like weather. I know we all use these tools slightly differently but when I have multi-destination trips like this one seems to be I get everything I need from TripIt with it being a single trip.
