New in Travel Outenza: book hotels and experiences in the app
Book hotels, experiences and transport straight from your saved places in Travel Outenza. Here is everything new in the trip planner app.
In short
Book from saved places: links to Booking.com, Hotels.com and Expedia right on the card.
More than hotels: also book experiences, excursions, car rental and airport transfers.
Notifications: the iPhone app lets you know what is happening on your trips.
Faster start: all you need is a destination. You can add the dates later.
New “Get started” checklist: shows you the first steps, and you can hide it whenever you like.
Not just for long trips: use the app to collect your favourite spots in your own city.
From saved place to finished booking
Saved is where your trip takes shape. It is where you collect hotels, restaurants, sights and everything else you want to experience. Now your places also have links to Booking.com, Hotels.com and Expedia. Found something you like? You can check prices and availability without having to search for it all over again.
Hotels, experiences and transport
A trip is more than a hotel room. That is why the links do not just cover accommodation:
Accommodation: hotels, apartments and holiday homes via Booking.com, Hotels.com and Expedia.
Experiences: guided tours, excursions, tickets to sights and activities at your destination via Booking.com and Expedia.
Transport: car rental, airport transfers and flights via Booking.com and Expedia.
Which links you see depends on the place you have saved. A hotel has links to accommodation, while a northern lights tour or a boat trip links to that experience.
You book and pay on the booking site, and its prices and terms apply. You can compare before you decide. You then add the booking to your itinerary, so your travel companions can see where you are staying, what you are doing and how you are getting there.
The links to Booking.com, Hotels.com and Expedia are affiliate links. If you book through them, Travel Outenza may earn a small commission. It costs you nothing extra, and it helps us keep developing the app.

Push notification from Travel Outenza on an iPhone lock screen
The iPhone app now sends push notifications. If you are planning a trip together, you get notified when something happens, without having to open the app to check. You can turn notifications on and off in your phone’s settings.
Get started in under a minute
Getting started should be easy. That is why we have made it faster to create a trip:
Only the destination is required. Not sure when you are travelling? Choose “Not sure yet” and add the dates later.
The “Get started” checklist on the trip overview shows you the first steps: save places, invite your travel companions and build your plan day by day. Once you know your way around, you can hide the checklist.
A local touch. The trip overview uses greetings and details from the country you are travelling to.

The myth that you have to go far
Many people think a trip planner is only for the big summer holiday or a round-the-world trip. But some of the best experiences are closer than you think. Travel Outenza works just as well for a Saturday in your own city as for three weeks in Asia.
Create a “trip” where you live. Call it “Treasures in my city” and save the cafés, trails, viewpoints and shops you want to try.
Book experiences locally. Food tours, classes and guided walks exist in your own city too, and can be booked straight from your saved places.
Build your own lists. My Saved gathers everything you have saved, and you can create lists for weekend trips, rainy days or visits from family.
Plan day trips with friends. Invite the group, and everyone sees the same plan and can suggest places.
Share your finds. You can share the places you save with the rest of the Travel Outenza community, so others can discover the hidden gems too.
You might find that the best trip this year does not require a flight at all.
