Set It, Don’t Forget It: TripIt Pro Passport Renewal Reminder Is Here

US_Passport_reminder_blog_hero.png

 

It happens to the best of us: you’re deep in travel-planning mode, researching international flights, accommodations, restaurants, and activities. But even after you’ve booked your carefully laid plans and created an itinerary in TripIt, you can’t shake the nagging feeling you’ve forgotten something. That something is your passport—and by the time you remember to check the expiration date, it’s too late to renew it before your trip. 

 

We’re making sure this never happens to TripIt travelers again. 

 

Introducing: TripIt Pro Passport Renewal Reminder.

With this feature, your travelers will receive timely notifications that their passport expiration date is approaching, so they can start the renewal process well ahead of their next international trip.

 

What is the Passport Renewal Reminder feature? 

TripIt Pro Passport Renewal Reminder will notify the traveler when their passport is nearing expiration. That way, their documents will always be up to date, giving them peace of mind. 

 

Your travelers can expect: 

  • Reminders that their passport is expiring to help them avoid the stress and cost of scrambling to renew their passport at the last minute.
  • Automatic alerts so they don’t need to manually track their passport’s expiration date, saving them time and effort. 
  • An easy way to manage multiple passports and expiration dates for family members or travel companions.

 

Tip: Many countries require a passport to be valid for at least six months beyond the date of entry. Passport Renewal Reminder will help the traveler comply with these requirements—with plenty of time to renew. 

 

How do my travelers set it up?  

In the TripIt app, tap the Account tab, and visit Travel Documents. Tap the plus (+) button to add a passport (or multiple passports). Be sure to add the date of expiration. 

 

TripIt Pro will then send reminders to renew the passport 12 months prior to its expiration. At that time, they can expect an email reminder and an in-app alert. The traveler can change their email notification settings at any time. 

 

Once the passport is renewed, remember to update TripIt with the new information and expiration date.
