Creating trip itineraries can be one of the most time-consuming parts of a travel advisor job. While travel itinerary templates in Word or Excel can help organize trips, they often fall short in offering the flexibility and efficiency needed to manage multiple bookings, make updates, and communicate with clients. That's why more and more travel advisors are turning to tools like TravelJoy’s itinerary builder for a more streamlined and professional solution.
Here are five reasons why TravelJoy’s itinerary builder is the go-to choice for travel agents who want to save time, improve client communication, and elevate their business beyond simple templates.
When you rely on a trip itinerary template, you’re often left manually entering all the information about hotels, cruises, and activities. This can take hours—especially if you’re piecing it together from multiple sources, and if you're having to do it over and over again.
TravelJoy solves this problem with its built-in content library. The platform gives you instant access to descriptions and photos for over 70 cruise lines and more than 500,000 hotels. Instead of spending valuable time searching for this information, you can quickly pull in all the details you need. The result is a fully fleshed-out itinerary in minutes, giving you more time to focus on delivering personalized travel experiences for your clients.
Templates usually require manual input for each piece of information. But with TravelJoy’s innovative Magic Importer, you can quickly import details from any confirmation or quote PDF and turn them into itinerary items with just a few clicks. Whether it's a flight booking, hotel reservation, or cruise confirmation, TravelJoy's itinerary builder uses AI to extract the relevant details and automatically create itinerary items.
This not only saves you hours of data entry but also ensures that all the details are captured accurately—far more efficient than manually filling out a travel itinerary template.
TravelJoy’s itinerary builder offers full customization options, allowing you to design branded itineraries that leave a lasting impression.
You can easily upload your logo and create a polished, professional document that reflects your unique style. Your clients will not only be impressed by the detailed itineraries but also by how sleek and cohesive your branding looks—something a static template simply can’t offer.
Managing back-and-forth communication with clients is a challenge for any travel advisor, especially when using traditional templates. When changes are made, it often means sending multiple versions of the itinerary and dealing with client approvals via email, which can get messy.
With TravelJoy, itinerary updates and approvals are a breeze. You can share itineraries via email, direct link, or PDF, and clients can review and approve proposals with just a click. All changes are tracked in one place, reducing the number of emails you have to send and making the approval process seamless. Your clients will appreciate the convenience, and you’ll save valuable time.
One of the biggest pain points with using a trip itinerary template is that clients don’t always have access to the information when they need it, especially if they’re offline or on the go.
TravelJoy’s Itineraries app allows clients to access their trip details at any time, even when they’re offline. With just a few clicks, your clients can view all their travel plans, from hotel details to activity bookings, in one place. This modern client experience not only keeps them organized but also makes you look like a tech-savvy travel advisor who cares about making their trip as smooth as possible.
While travel itinerary templates can provide a basic framework, they simply can’t compete with the flexibility, customization, and time-saving benefits that TravelJoy’s itinerary builder offers. From accessing a built-in content library and importing PDFs in seconds to streamlined client communication and offline access through the Itineraries app, TravelJoy provides travel agents with everything they need to create professional, detailed itineraries with minimal effort.
