Whether you're just getting started or have your entire itinerary mapped out, our Add Dates feature will keep you on track! Simply enter your trip's start and end dates, and we'll automatically sort everything by date.
To add dates to your trip, open the trip itinerary then click or tap the Add Dates button at the top of the trip itinerary and enter your start and end dates.
After you add dates, you'll be asked if you would like to keep your trip public, or set it to private. You can learn more about privacy settings and how they affect visibility here.
After setting a date range for your trip, we'll schedule your existing stops with a suggested date. Don't worry - you can easily adjust the date afterward! When you want to add more stops you can either let Roadtrippers insert it where we think makes sense or you can add the stop directly to a date of your choosing.
Clear Dates
If dates are already applied to your trip, then you'll see a Clear Dates button that will clear all dates from your trip. When you'll click that button, a warning message will ask if you're sure you want to continue because this cannot be undone.
If you want to proceed with clearing dates, click Clear. If not, click Cancel to go back to your trip.
