For 20 years, TripIt has helped travelers stay organized, informed, and one step ahead—from the moment they book a trip to the moment they arrive home. But with so many ways TripIt can make travel easier, we have one question: Which TripIt feature is the fan favorite?
It’s time to settle the debate.
We’re putting 16 TripIt features head to head in a bracket-style showdown, and asking you to decide which one comes out on top. Each round, you’ll vote for the features you can’t travel without. The winners will advance until just one is crowned the ultimate TripIt feature.
Will a travel-day lifesaver like Flight Alerts take the title? Will a planning powerhouse like Inbox Sync go all the way? Or will another fan favorite pull off an upset?
Meet the contenders below, then cast your votes on Instagram.
1. Inbox Sync
No forwarding required. Connect your email account to TripIt, and Inbox Sync automatically adds eligible travel plans from your inbox to your TripIt itinerary—helping keep your flights, hotels, rental cars, and other bookings organized in one place.
2. TripIt Pro Flight Alerts
Gate change? Delay? Cancellation? TripIt Pro keeps you in the know with real-time flight alerts, including check-in reminders, departure updates, and terminal and gate notifications when you’re near the airport.
3. TripIt Pro Alternate Flights
When your original flight no longer works, TripIt Pro can help you find another option fast. Alternate Flights lets you search other flights, dates, times, and even nearby airports so you can see your options and contact your airline or travel vendor to make a change.
4. Navigator
TripIt’s Navigator feature helps you get from point A to point B more easily. Select starting and ending destinations from addresses in your itinerary (or your current location) to get directions through your mapping app. You’ll find estimated costs and travel times for each option (when available), so you can decide which works best.

Find your gate without wandering the terminal. Interactive Airport Maps provide step-by-step walking directions to gates, charging stations, restaurants, and other airport amenities, along with estimated walking times and other helpful details.
