GETTING STARTED
What Is TripsByDate and How Does It Work?
One departure airport. A selection of dates. Holiday listings from different travel companies, presented in one simple format.
What is TripsByDate?
TripsByDate is a package holiday discovery website designed to make finding holidays simpler. It brings together holiday listings from different travel companies and presents them in a consistent, easy-to-browse format.
Instead of working through destination after destination, the idea is to explore holiday options around your available dates and see which places might fit.
What does “date-first” mean?
Most people start planning with a place in mind: Spain, Greece, Portugal or somewhere else. A date-first approach reverses that decision. Start with the days you can travel, then consider the destinations available for those dates.
This is especially useful when your time off is fixed but your destination is flexible.
How do you use TripsByDate?
- Choose your departure airport. Select the airport you want to fly from. TripsByDate remembers your selection for future visits.
- Browse departure dates. Click a date to see which package holidays are listed for that day, or view all available dates.
- Explore the listings. Browse destinations, hotels, prices, holiday durations and travel providers in a consistent format. You can also explore destinations using the map.
- View the deal. Select a holiday to visit the travel provider, where you can confirm availability, prices and booking details.
Who is TripsByDate for?
It can be particularly helpful if you have already booked annual leave, need to travel during a school break, have a limited window for a short getaway, or simply enjoy discovering places you had not thought of visiting.
Does TripsByDate sell the holidays?
TripsByDate is intended to help you discover and compare holiday listings. Always check the holiday provider’s own website for up-to-date availability, what is included, booking conditions and the final payable price.
What is the long-term goal of TripsByDate?
Our ambition is to bring together package holiday listings from as many travel providers as possible, making it easier to discover and compare holidays without visiting numerous different websites.
Rather than creating another complicated holiday search engine, we want to make holiday discovery straightforward: choose your airport, browse the dates and explore the options.
Why was TripsByDate created?
The idea comes from a simple planning problem: sometimes the one thing you know for certain is when you can go away. If you are open to several destinations, searching each one separately can make it harder to see the range of possibilities.
TripsByDate takes that fixed date and makes it the starting point for discovering a holiday.
