PlanKnit for travel businesses

If you run group departures, packages or private trips for clients, this is how PlanKnit fits your work: your itinerary becomes a booking page, each departure keeps its own seats, and private trips stay private.

Every trip you sell is a set of experiences knitted together: the stays, the walks, the meals, the sunrise you planned the whole day around. PlanKnit gives each trip a booking page, takes payments on it and keeps your departures and clients apart, so you stop juggling WhatsApp threads and spreadsheets.

Three kinds of trips you can run

You sellHow it works on PlanKnit
Group departuresOne trip, as many dates as you like. Each departure keeps its own seats, and the page shows what's left as people book.
PackagesA trip without fixed dates. Price it per person or for the whole package, with room options like twin sharing or a single room.
Private trips for one clientA personalised itinerary for a family or a group. Choose **Only people I invite** when you publish, and only people you send the link to can see or book it.

Start from the itinerary you already have

  1. Open Create and pick Group trip — Or Trek, Retreat, Road trip and so on. Go to [Create](/workspace/create).
  2. Attach your itinerary — Press the paperclip and drop the PDF, Word file or photos you send clients on WhatsApp. Add a line with the dates, seats and price.
  3. Check the page — Days, stays, meals, inclusions, exclusions and what to carry are laid out for you. Fix anything by asking in the studio chat.
  4. Add your departures — Type them in plain words, like "12 Dec and 16 Jan, 16 seats each". See [Add dates and repeating schedules](/knowledgebase/dates/add-dates-and-schedules).
  5. Choose who can book, then publish — Anyone, Only people I invite, or People who apply. See [Publish your experience](/knowledgebase/publishing/publish-your-experience).

Tip: Have a folder of itineraries? Press **Import PDFs** in Experiences to bring in up to 10 at once.

Remix a trip for the next client

Most enquiries are a version of a trip you've already built. In **Experiences**, press **Remix**, tap the trip to use it as a reference, and describe what changes: "same trip for the Mehta family, 4 days, Ubud and Seminyak only, 10–13 Feb". You get a new draft with its own dates, price and guests, so two clients on different dates are managed separately and the original stays as it is.

Remix works best when the new trip is a variation of the old one: shorter, longer, a different group, different dates or different stays. For a new destination, start a new experience instead.

Payments that suit trips

Guests can pay an advance to book and the balance before the trip, and PlanKnit sends the reminders. You see who still owes what in Bookings, and every booking gets a GST invoice. Once you're [verified](/knowledgebase/verification/get-verified), guests pay by UPI, card or net banking on the page.

Common questions

Will my private trip show up on Explore?

No. Pages set to Only people I invite are seen only by people you send the link to.

If I remix a trip, does the original change?

No. Remix makes a new draft. Changes to it don't touch the trip you started from.

Can I take an advance and the balance later?

Yes. Set it in the studio, for example "30% to book, the rest 30 days before".
