With the holidays on the brain, here are some ways to make the most of TripIt Pro’s “Inner Circle” feature, which allows you to automatically share trip plans with significant others, family members, or other VIPs - making it easier to coordinate airport pick-ups and holiday activities seamlessly.
Choose wisely. Members of the “Inner Circle” will be notified immediately by email when you create a new itinerary in TripIt, and they'll have access to your trip details from their smartphone or online.
TripIt Pro’s “Inner Circle” makes it easy for the VIPs in your life to:
- Be notified every time you create a new itinerary
- Access shared trip itineraries on their smartphone or on the web
- Download a calendar file to keep trip plans organized

Like most people, I travel for both business and pleasure. I have a TripIt Pro account and find it absolutely invaluable. However, it sadly lacks the type of sharing I would like. The Inner Circle is just one example.
When travelling for business, I would often like to share my complete travel plans with certain (ie no all) colleagues. This may include colleagues from other organisations. This group of people changes for each trip. It is impossible to define one Inner Circle that covers all the possible ways I would like to share for business. Why can't I simply say I want to share this particular trip with Bob Smith? When travelling privately, I aslo use TripIt. I don't necessarily want all my holiday trips listed in my Company TripIt Calendar. On the other hand, I may wish to share with friends.
Please give us the ability to define multiple "circles" for different needs. Alternatively, allow us to simply share on a person by person basis.

John: You can do what you want today! On the page of the itinerary you want to share, click on "Get a link" at the top right. On the next screen, click on "Activate link." Then on the following screen, you will have a web link that you can copy and E-mail to the people that you want to see that one trip. Alternatively, you can click on the tab "Send email" and fill in E-mail addresses and Tripit will send the link for you.
