We built Pilot to be as simple as possible for you to add and delete things from your itinerary.

The easiest way to add new items is in the bottom bar of your trip planner page.

Start by selecting the create tab:

From left to right, you can select each of the icons within the Create menu as follows:


The globe icon will allow you to add a new destination to your itinerary. You can also type the letter D on your keyboard, or drag and drop the globe to your desired spot in your itinerary.


The heading icon will allow you to add a new heading. You can also type the letter H on your keyboard, or drag and drop the icon to the desired spot in your itinerary. Clicking the tab or using the keyboard shortcut will place the new heading within the destination section currently selected in the globe dropdown.

The bed icon will allow you to add a new accommodations. You can also type the letter S on your keyboard, or drag and drop the bed to the spot you want in your itinerary.


The plane icon will allow you to add a flight (shortcut: the letter F on your keyboard)

The train icon will allow you to add a train, bus, or other public transit option (shortcut: the letter T on your keyboard)


The car icon will allow you to add rental car or any other transit option (shortcut: the letter G on your keyboard)

Selecting or shortcutting to these options will add them to the itinerary underneath the destination next to the globe icon, but you can drag and drop any of these icons to the spot you want in your itinerary and enter information there.

The flag icon will allow you to add a new activity. You can also type the letter A on your keyboard, or drag and drop the flag to the spot you want in your itinerary.

Finally, the sparkle icon will allow you to open up our AI feature to get suggestions for activities in your locations. You can also access this by typing Command + K on your keyboard.

Here, you can type in what you're looking for, and our AI will automatically generate suggestions for you! You can then browse the options and directly add them to specific spots in your itinerary via the Add to trip button dropdown.

You can also add certain items directly in the itinerary under a destination by clicking the respective buttons: Add Accommodations, +Activity, and +Heading.


Once items are added, you can drag and drop them into whichever order you like, by hovering on them and clicking & dragging this button below:


To delete something, hover over the box you want to delete and click the trashcan icon on the left. It’s that simple!

On the Map

Similarly, you can also add activities via the map itself! You can just search what you're looking for on the map and use the Add to trip dropdown button.

However, you can also delete pins from the map and have them still remain in your itinerary. Simply select "Delete map pin" from the map pin icon dropdown, and the location tag will be removed from the respective itinerary item.


You can also remove the location tag from the itinerary item by clicking into the activity and selecting the location field and deleting the text.
