TripCase

I used to create itinerary of my trip with Google spreadsheet. Because it's easy access and can be shared among the tripmates. The interface is simple, just like the Excel spreadsheet on Microsoft with all the basic tools. At that time, we were more attached to laptop than mobile phone. time belajar2 kan ngadap laptop je sepanjang masa. I miss internet connection in Vandy. Oh vummiv T_T. Semua org online like 24/7 and ade yang tak shut down laptop berminggu2 kekeke.

But now, we are more connected via mobilephone. Viewing and editing google docs on smartphone doesn't seem legit anymore. Not practical and not flexible. So I tried a few app on iphone under "travel" category and finally, I've found this one app yang best!

With TripCase I don't have to worry about my flight confirmation number, flight schedule, hotel booking number etc. All in one app. Now I can keep all the travel info in this app and automatically create a complete itinerary! One thing that I really like about TripCase is that it's connected to all airline companies and most of the hotels in the world. and you also can share your itinerary with your friends!

So, for flight ticket, I just need to put in the Flight # and the date, It'll automatically fill in the departure and arrival time. Same goes to Hotel, just search the City, then TripCase will show you a list of hotels and you can view the map and any other info. There is a field to put the Booking # and confirmation # in there. So, I don't have to take pictures of everything anymore. haha previously, I just took pictures/screenshots of the important details to make sure I have everything with me in case I dont have access to email later.. haha so old school I know.

This is the menu page. You can add item like Flight, Lodging, Car Rental, Activity, Attraction, Cruise, Ferry, Food& Drinks, Ground Transportation, and Rail. You can also view the weather at your destination, save important phone numbers and etc. 

A screenshot from my Krabi trip on TripCase. Just add the flight, lodging, activities etc, it will create a simple schedule like this. Best kan? And just click on each activity to view all the important infos you have filled in. 

And TripCase called this as an "Action View". Basically, each item that you add on your itinerary will have an individual page like this. You can view the weather, the map and even call the airline/hotel.

I'm so impressed when I checked this. They could even tell you if the flight is delayed by 1minute! Wow so efficient. 

One thing you need to know, creating the Trip and all the amendments can only be done with internet connection. But I don't think it's a big deal because normally we will plan a trip at least a few days before kan. So still got connection, but no worries, if you're working offline at your destination, you can still view all the infos, cuma tak boleh buat modification je. Good enough. Normally, dah sampai destination nak edit apa lgi pon kan?

Selamat Mencuba! hehehehe

Happy New Year people! hihi  nak wish pon dh 16days delay. Zaman2 sekarang dah tak mampu dah nak buat resolution every year. Because most of them will end up, bringforward to next year! haha.  last year's resolution pon brape percent je yang accomplished.

I am now trying to adapt with my new life. Not that I'm moving anywhere, but.. Ok I forgot to mention that my youngest sister got 5A's in her UPSR last year. So yay! But no yay. We decided to send her to hostel just like 3 of us. After UPSR semua duduk asrama. With ayah being far far away, and another sister at KMM, and the married couple is quite occupied with their activities, left me and mama alone T_T

You see the flow? Anak bongsu di hantar ke asrama, it was not just adik yang selalu homesick, mama pon get the sick-sick syndrome all the times. Husband-sick and anakbongsu-sick. Well just imagine, all this while memang my youngest sister yang ade with mama all the times, pergi sekolah anta, balik ambik, tidur sekatil, kekekee.  And now, I took over everthing! haha from the bed, bathroom, all the gadgets, remote control, couch and etc. and as usual trying to be silly badut to entertain mama after work. hehe. But after 6pm, baru la ade orang dekat rumah. I can't imagine how bored mama is, staying at home alone without Awin.

So yea, that is basically how my year started. Adapting adapting adapting. This month is my anniversary with BV. It has been a year. One freaking yearrrr. It doesn't sound long at all. But what I've gone through, fuh *lap lap peluh* I feel like athousandyearssssss. haha Ok tipu je. Dah lama tak rase exaggerate over2 :P

I miss celebrating new year at Disneyworld. I just need something more than watching the fireworks from inside the house, and the laziness to open the grill made it worse. Feel like being in the prison and watching the fireworks alone from the cell. I need my favorite people. I need to get out from the normal routine. Miss. Miss.

Anyhowww, Hello fresh page. Hoping that I can get a super nice drawing at the end of the year. hehehehe.
