Turning the idea into a trip
- Agree on the rough budget and length first. Those two details decide who can come more than the dates do.
- Offer the first day of each possible trip as the date, and put the trip length in the event name, like "Beach trip, 4 nights".
- Set a deadline to vote, and a deadline to pay. It's the second one that makes a trip real.
- Check for time-off limits. Some people may need their manager's approval before they can say Yes.
How it works
- Add your event and the dates that could work.
- Email your group, or share one link by text or group chat.
- Everyone taps Yes, Maybe or No for each date, with no account.
- See the best date, choose it, and let everyone know.
Questions
Can I poll date ranges?
Each option is a single date, so use the first day of the trip and describe the length in the event name.
What should I do with the Maybes?
Follow up with them before you pay a deposit, because a Maybe can become a No.
Does it work across time zones?
Dates and times show exactly as you enter them, so mention the time zone in the event name if it matters.
