Itineraries

An itinerary is a route you sell again and again, for example Classic 4D/3N. Each departure of that route is a trip. The itinerary carries everything that does not change from one departure to the next: duration, ports, daily program, requirements, inclusions and photos. All of it appears on your public trip pages.

For a first setup, follow 3. Itineraries & trips.

Create an itinerary

1. Click New itinerary.

2. Basic Information: the Name (the slug fills itself; the Unique ID is generated), the Boat / Vessel, the Description (About This Trip), the region and country, the Status (Draft, Active or Inactive), Featured Itinerary and a sort order for lists.

3. Duration & Difficulty: Days and Nights (required), Total Dives, Difficulty Level (Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced), Departure Port and Arrival Port. You can add a new port from the field.

4. Fill in the content sections you need (below), then click Create.

Inclusions and packages

Liveaboard has no “package”: what a trip includes is described here, under What’s Included / Excluded, and anything sold on top is an extra.

Find an itinerary

The list shows the ID, Itinerary Title, Duration, Boat, Difficulty, the number of Trips and the order. Filter by Vessel, status, country, Duration, Difficulty, region or Featured Only.

Clone, reassign, delete

In the row menu:

• Clone copies the itinerary as a Draft named … (Copy) and opens it, ready to adapt.
• View Trips opens the trips of this itinerary.
• Reassign All Trips moves every trip of this itinerary to another one. Choose the New Itinerary; keep Recalculate end dates on to adjust the return dates to the new duration, and Delete this itinerary after reassign to remove the old one once it is empty.
• Delete is refused while trips still use the itinerary: reassign or delete them first.

Good to know

• Changing an itinerary’s content updates the public pages of all its trips.
• The Days and Nights cannot be changed while the itinerary has upcoming trips with confirmed or pending bookings.
• Changing the duration does not move the return date of existing trips: use Reassign All Trips with Recalculate end dates for that.
