Set a location on a trip day to give the itinerary geographic context, such as the city your travelers are in that day.

What it does

A trip day location tells Tern where that part of the trip takes place. It doesn't change any time zones. Each activity takes its time zone from its own location, property or port. If an activity's time shows UTC, choose the time zone in the dropdown next to its time.

How it works

When you set a location on a trip day, start typing in the location field. Tern suggests matching places as you type. The suggestions include all place types, such as cities, regions, landmarks, airports, and points of interest, not just cities. Select the place that best fits the day.

Steps

  1. Open the trip and go to the Itinerary tab.

  2. Select the trip day you want to set a location for.

  3. Start typing in the location field. Tern suggests matching places as you type.

  4. Select a place from the list. Choose the specific place that fits the day, such as a landmark or airport, or a broader city or region.

You'll know it worked when

The location appears on the trip day.
